He says the best thing about being a Virginia Tech student is that there are numerous resources for the students to use. When Christopher was in middle school, he dreamt of being a guitarist. Now that Christopher is at Virginia Tech, he dreams of solving problems for people in need. If he could change one thing, he would change the price of gas so that it never exceeds $3.50.
