Christopher Columbus Class Analysis

1. There were a ton of majors that looked interesting from this lecture. First off the animal sciences major looked very appealing since I love working with animals and would like to understand more about them. The major seems very hands on and adventurous. The major fits in with my strengths since I’m passionate in science related topics. Another major that appeals to me is the agribusiness and applied economics, as this was one of the recommended majors from the survey that was taken during the lecture. It combines many of the aspects that I enjoy, including working with numbers and the principles of economics.

He said that the group he was with went by volcanos, climbed glaciers, climb rocks, and other fun activities. These stories make me want to travel abroad if possible because of the unique experiences each person brings back. Another interesting thing that I learned from this lecture was about this class offered at Ohio State University that took the class to a body of water in Columbus to examine different species present. It was interesting because the professor was one of the leading researchers for this type of work. Overall, the class looked interesting and unique.

Also, If I don’t pursue this type of major, is it possible to get a minor in one of the agricultural science
