Georg Schlaiss (striped shirt), he’s German, and dresses better than most of us. He’s a sophomore government major, and just finished an internship with the Daimler AG office in DC.

Phillip Sullivan (second from left), a licensed veterinary technician and junior biology major from Alexandria, VA. Phil likes eel soup and the philosophical lyrics of 3OH!3.

J.P. Kostecki (far left), is our resident drummer from Yorktown ,VA. Unlike those of us who slave away at tedious summer jobs or summer school, J.P. is a member of the Carolina Crown drumline and Mason’s own Green Machine competitive drum line.

Sean Kelly (far right), a native of Aldie, VA is a freshman who is still undecided about what he’d like to study. Hopefully he’ll figure that out soon.

Driss Benkirane (in front), is a freshman from Casablanca, Morocco, who is a big fan of the Georgetown neighborhood of DC and is fluent in French.

Welcome, guys!
