    20 year old Satya Sokei-Bhanot is a first year Liberal Arts major from Kaimuki. He currently works at the testing facility at Llama Library, but he hopes to achieve a law degree. Since both of his parents and his uncles are all lawyers, he wants to understand how law works. "It seems pretty interesting ... and it's mostly common sense when it comes to figuring out if someone's guilty or not," Sokei-Bhanot stated, "There's a lot [of different types of lawyers], but I'll probably be a prosecutor."

Once he finishes his two years at KCC, he is willing to move from Hawaiʻi for a better education, though he'd prefer to stay here.
