This week, the Curious ‘Cat asks Villanova students, “Who or what inspires you?”

Rebecca Snow—“My mom inspires me ‘cause she’s got six kids and she still manages to have her life and get us together. She’s amazing.”

Luke Nowlan—“My dad inspires me. He always tells me I can be whoever I want to be and do what I want and encourages me in whatever I pursue. He’s always optimistic and a hard worker; I really admire those qualities and I look up to him.”

Derek Loughini—“My dad: he’s a business owner and so he tells me a lot of what he does. He inspires me to work hard in school so I can do what I want to do later in life.”

Kathleen Boyce—“Martin Luther King [is] inspiring me to attend the March for Life this Friday ‘cause I think if he were still alive he would be leading the March. I think it’s important that we represent Villanova in attending the March on Friday.”

Tatyana Chouikha—“My dad: He’s an electrical engineer, and I’m studying chemical engineering. He’s so wise and really focused … he inspires me.”

Miguel Corte-Real—“My grandfather and then, in terms of celebrity-type figures, Elon Musk”
