My topic is ethanol, which can be made form corn to provide green energy for cars. Since the government  was subsidizing ethanol, it raised the price of corn. This effected pig and beef industry who fed their animal corn.

so far

It only took one day for me to decide I was going to enjoy the format of college classes. There is no messing around or doing pointless activities. You show up to class, spend a focused hour on learning the material, and then go on your way. The amount of independence is refreshing. Doing things on your own and for yourself instead of following a group around like some of us did in high school. This allows me to feel more in control of my education and the amount of time I want to put into it. I've only been a college student for a week but i'm very enthusiastic about the next four years to come.
