| − | Rachel Perez, you may be surprised to discover when hearing her last name, is quite Greek. In fact, she speaks fluent Greek to her grandmother and curious bystanders alike. Her favorite phrase in the foreign tongue is "ne ne ne," but she has yet to explain this redundant and seemingly gibberish exclamation. | + | Rachel Perez graduated from Knox College. |
| − | | |
| − | Rachel was born in [[Illinois]] and will die in Illinois, though she will travel to many other destinations between those two milestones. Throughout her high school career, Ms. Perez took an intrinsic pride in her status as a [[Whitney Young]] High School Academic Decathalon Champion.

| − | As far as academics at Knox College are concerned, Rachel enjoys any class that can provide her with a veritable wealth of factoids, which she then uses to amaze her peers. For instance, did you know that the human mind can only process language in context, and so breaking it up into individual words would render our speech incomprehensible? Or, did you know that restaurants aren't allowed to sing "Happy Birthday" to their customers because it bears an ancient copyright? Or, did you know that ponies are not baby horses, but rather a whole separate species on their own?
