JFK Debate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know, it's a random title. It is referring to President John F. Kennedy's assassination and the theories surrounding it. It's the topic of my research paper for my J-term class.

Sorry that this blog is a day late, but all week long every spare moment I had to was devoted to researching JFK and writing what would become a fourteen page paper. This morning I presented my findings to the class with my conclusion on the non-conspiracy/conspiracy debate.

Seriously, I feel like a JFK expert now! I'm not going to actually get into my conclusion right now, but if anyone is interested about the evidence or what the "answer" is to the question then feel free to shoot me a comment! I'm not going to get into it now b/c I don't want to offend either side of the argument.....Did you know that over 2,000 books have been written about it? And at least 30 people have confessed to being a shooter/conspirator? Sadly, their testimony isn't very legit, but my point is it's amazing how absorbed people can become! There are really people out there who have devoted their time to trying to "crack the mystery!!"

While I don't think that I'm that passionate about the case, it did give me insight into how much I enjoy history. As a freshman, I'm still toying with what I want to major in. This class definitely showed me how much I would enjoy studying history and pursuing a career that involved a histoy major. I guess we'll have to see what happens this next semester when I finally get to take an in depth math class, another major that I'm thinking about. It's so hard to decide when I like so many different subjects!

Conclusion: J-term rocks! Even in Decorah :)

Stay warm! (It's all I think about these days!)

"O Lord, you have searched me and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O Lord."
