Tough and determined, Jon Marc never loses a bet he can control. Friends know better than to take an adversarial position; they never win.
Whether it is on the playing field or in the classroom, Jon Marc's drive to get ahead is 100 percent.
"I am pleased, but never satisfied, with my own progress," he said.
When he's not in the gym working out, he probably playing pick-up basketball with friends. Basketball is his favorite sport because it is fast and intensely competitive. Losing is not an option in his mind.
He takes all things in life seriously, but not so seriously that he's incapable of fun. As a child, he terrorized his neighborhood with ornery tricks. In college, he's pranked his roommates and caused the same kind of havoc.
Jon Marc definitely has a wild side. But that doesn't stop him from being a truly sensitive guy when it comes to relationships. He has a hidden soft side behind the cocky jock image.
"When I watch a sad movie, I will sometimes cry - sometimes," he said.
Campus Men staff sent Jon Marc to Chicago to appear on a nationally distributed television talk show. The "Jenny Jones Show" in which he appears will air next month.
"I just kept asking myself, 'What what my mom think if she saw me like this?,'" Jon Marc said. "I guess she doesn't have a choice now."
