Hi everyone my name is James Ronan and I am from Bethesda, Maryland, about 10 minutes from Washington, DC. I am a sophomore here at Penn State, hoping to be a finance major. I am also a member of the rugby team.

I am not a science major for a couple reasons, the main one being that I have never really done well in science classes. I always had a hard time motivating myself to study chemistry and biology because I didn’t think that I would ever need to know about that stuff in the real world.

As you can imagine, I was not excited about having to take GN’s at Penn State. Last year, however, my roommate took this class and loved it. He said it was unlike any science class that he had ever been in before and said that he learned information that was actually valuable to him. Hopefully by the end of this course, I will feel like Walter White in Breaking Bad.Penn-State-10
