Rob Nash and Chanequa Walker-Barnes an interview with McAfee’s new professors

What is the last movie you saw in the theater? Dr. Walker-Barnes

Dr. Walker-Barnes

The Lorax. Most of my trips to the movies are on behalf of my 3-year-old. I have some vague recollection of my husband and I going to the movies several months ago, but I cannot remember what it was. We mostly watch movies on Netflix and Vudu.

Dr. Nash

Do you have any pets? What kind? No pets right now. I had a really great dog who died several years ago and I still miss her. I tried to fill that void with two other dogs, but that just didn’t work. Shelby was irreplaceable. My son may be getting a pet for his fourth birthday this summer. He originally asked for a dog, but we’re thinking he needs to start with something smaller...a goldfish or hamster, maybe.

I don’t get to the movies as much as I’d like, but the last time I did, we saw Hugo – it was wonderful! Dr. Nash

My wife and I have a dog and two cats. Our dog is a Corgi named Nemo. He hangs out with our two cats, Mama Kitty and Agamemnon.

What is the most played song on your iPod? Dr. Walker-Barnes

This is really sad. My son took over my iPod so most of my top 25 songs are from Thomas & Friends and the Disney Channel. The first grown-up song that appears on my list is Deitrick Haddon’s “Gravity.”

Dr. Nash

Don’t judge me too badly, but “Son of a Preacher Man” is by far the most played song on my iPod!

What scripture passage is most meaningful to you? Dr. Walker-Barnes

I think Micah 6:8 summarizes Christian scripture in its entirety. I love that passage so much that I named my son Micah.

Dr. Nash

“Do not fear, for I am with you, do not be afraid, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.” – Isaiah 41.10, NRSV
