Introduction

Hi,

My name is Nick, I just turned 21 years old, and I'm a senior here at Illinois State. In August I will graduate with a Bachelor's degree in economics with a minor in math. But then in order to prolong (and, of course, indulge my interests) entering the nonexistent job market and becoming a real person, I will begin the Master's program in economics here at ISU. I hope to then enter a doctoral program *somewhere* in the US.

My reason for taking POL 106 is two-fold: (1) ISU didn't believe me that I learned this stuff through SLU in high school and (2) I forgot all of this stuff anyway. I have taken POL 105, 141, 151 and 254, and found them all to be very interesting classes. Let's go 5 for 5.

I'm a pretty boring person, but in my spare time I enjoy discovering new music artists, staying up late watching movies, and biking.
