About Me
My name is Mitchell Negus, and I'm a first-year at Duke University studying mechanical engineering. I'm involved in the Duke University Marching Band on campus, and some of my interests are cooking, traveling, snow-skiing, hiking, golf, rowing, and video games.
Name Pronunciation
My name is pronounced "MIH-chull KNEE-gus."
Where I'm From
I'm from Chattanooga, Tennessee. Most people I've met at Duke fall into one of three categories regarding their knowledge about the great city of Chattanooga:
- They don't know where it is or anything about it (90%).
- They've at least heard of it since it was a Civil War battle site (7%).
- They know that it's located in the bottom right-hand corner of the state of Tennessee and the home of the moon pie– probably only because they're from Tennessee (3%).
More Chattanooga Fun Facts
- Chattanooga is the fourth most populous city in Tennessee (that's why no one knows about it).
- The Tennessee River runs through Chattanooga and is the twelfth longest body of water in the continental United States, which is why Georgia wants to steal our water.
- Although 73% of Tennessee is under central time, Chattanooga, as a part of East Tennessee, gets to be on Eastern Time.
- This isn't a fun fact about Chattanooga, but I have a 6 by 4 foot Tennessee state flag in my dorm room :)
