This week's episode of Kira's Halftime Show features Kappa Kappa Psi's Vice President of Membership! link: https://buff.ly/37jKYzl

Hey everybody! My name is Hunter Fullem and I am a sophomore at CalU this year. I’m majoring in secondary education with a concentration in Mathematics. I’m a really big sports fan especially with football, this extends to our CalU football team where I’m often heard cheering loud and proud for our CalU Vulcans. Some of my other hobbies include hiking, biking, and anything to do with being outdoors. In the CalU band, this is my first year being a PI, and I can’t wait to get back on the field again, but until then; be loud, stay proud, and go Vulcans.

My name is John Boldt. I graduated in Spring 2019 with a Commercial Music Technology degree! During my time at Cal, I was in the Trumpet section (I eat, breathe, and sleep Red Machine.) I'm currently attending Kutztown University obtaining my teaching certification in Music Education, and I really spend more money on gacha games than I really should. When I was at Cal I was a member of Kappa Kappa Psi (Donks are superior) and in my last year I was proud to serve as our Vice President of Membership. I'm sad I'm not able to participate in an on-campus homecoming this year, but I hope everyone is staying safe and well!
