My name is karina. I'm from Grand Island. My major is in Business. I'm taking this course because I figured I might need it for my major. I plan to go to UNK next fall and then I can get it over with by the time I go up there. Also, because it's cheaper. Since I just graduated from High School, I decided to get a head start in my education. I'm shooting for an A in this class. I'm going to try really hard. I wish to learn about how inflation and unemployment affects us. Just learn to make good decisions because I have no clue. It really seems like an interesting class and you make it easy to understand.

My name is Corey Farlee. I have lived in Grand Island all my life. I am majoring in Education I plan on transferring to Hastings College soon. I am taking Macroeconomics because it is needed for my major and also because I never really have understood the economy or Economics and I heard that you do a good job explaining things and making learning fun. I hope to recieve a low A or high B in this class. (Hopefully) I hope to learn a lot of different things about the economy this semester. One thing that really sticks out is the stock market and where it is wise to invest your money not only in the stock market but elsewhere.

My name is Karri and I live in Burwell. It is a pretty small town, about 1278 people to be exact. My major is Business Administration. I didn't have to take macro because I already took micro, but it was really interesting Another reason I took this course is because it was one of the classes I learned the most in. The way it is taught really helps you get a grasp of how the economy works. I am hoping to get somewhere around a B+. I want to learn more about the ever changing world around me and why our country functions the way that is does. I feel that it is important to understand why our leaders do the things they do for our country and the reasons that certain things happen in our economy. It is also beneficial to my major.
