1. Have you ever had plastic surgery? 2. If a doctor offered you a free procedure, would you take it? If so, what would you have done? 3. In general, how do you feel about plastic surgery?

1. No. 2. I probably wouldn't take it. I suck, I'm not very fun to interview. 3. I'm indifferent to plastic surgery. My opinion isn't necessarily favorable, and I don't necessarily like the concept, but if somebody feels like they need it, it's their prerogative. I wouldn't use it, but I wouldn't mind if somebody does. Ali Hasnain Senior, Political Science/Economics

1. Nope. 2. I wouldn't take it-why go through the extra trouble? I had surgery on my knee and that was awful. 3. If people want to do it, whatever. Christian Cueva Junior, Political Science

1. No. 2. Sometimes I'm not happy with my nose...I'm not sure. Probably. 3. It's OK. Eunha Shin Junior, Linguistics

1. No. 2. Yes-I would get scars removed. 3. I can see why people would get it, but honestly I don't like the idea of people getting boob jobs when there are people starving in Africa. If they have extra money, they should do something good with it. Jessica Zimmer Senior, Political Science/Philosophy

1. No. 2. Probably not. 3. It's OK for women, but not for men. Ju Lee Freshman, Business Marketing/Spanish

1. No. 2. No. 3. I don't think it should be done unless it's necessary. If you were in an accident, fine. Not cosmetic. Tanisha Lang Sophomore, Nursing

1. No. 2. No. 3. It's OK if people get surgery to feel comfortable or feel good, but I don't want it. Bokyung Kim Senior, Linguistics

1. No, but I paid for my ex-wife to have it done. That was a mistake. Before she had low self-esteem and too many inhibitions, but after she went through an emotional change. She went crazy and cheated on me. Now she's sowing her wild oats, I guess. 2. No, I'm not really interested in it. 3. I'm from California, the birthplace of plastic surgery. I know all about plastic surgery, I used to see it all over the place. I think it really depends on the individual. Matt Feenstra Junior, Electrical Engineering

1. No. 2. No. 3. Personally, I don't care. I don't need it. But if others do, that's all on them. Lachelle Fiefia Sophomore, Nursing

1. No. 2. No, I never would. I'm really against it. I don't understand why anyone would get plastic surgery. 3. There are so many people who have to have surgery who are probably asking themselves, why would you do that? Why would anyone voluntarily go under the knife? I think it's too bad that people are so unhappy with how they look. I don't think they'll ever be happy. If they can't accept the way they look, they'll never be satisfied. It's kind of shallow. I think people would be happier if they worked on it and didn't take a shortcut like liposuction. It's the easy way out. Michelle Condrat Senior, Art
