Name: Garrett Railsback
Graduation Date: May 2011
Academic Area: History & Economics
Scholar Biography:
I am a history and economics major graduating in May of 2011. I plan to do graduate coursework in the field of economics. The way in which economics intertwines with all aspects of life is something that I have always found interesting. I plan to utilize both history and economics in my summer research project to mold an appealing topic, one that will help me as a student, but be very intriguing to the average person. I am involved in Phi Alpha Theta, which is an honors society for history majors. I am also a member of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity. Working with McNair is something I look forward to with great anticipation, knowing that the sky is the limit.
