Kelly Fox, Marine Biology, Biology, Tennessee

Technological University, Cookeville, TN

Assignment 1My name is Kelly Fox and I'm a sophomore at Tennessee

Technological University. I'm very interested in a career in the field of marine biology. I have to say that I've been interested in marine biology since I was in

9th grade or about 15. For a Contemporary Issues class that I had I was assigned a report on a career that I didn't know much about. We were

supposed to talk about how the career field has changed in recent years and how to get into the career and how much money you can earn. I admit I wasn't too happy with the amount of money that you get but if I get to do something I

love doing it will be worth it. Anyways, I picked marine biology.

Marine biology is interesting because noone knows much about it. I

have always been an avid lover of dolphins and seals. I think the most interested aspect of the career would be the job in general. I love the ocean and a career near the ocean would make me happy. I hope that I can study dolphins and seals but since I'm not that picky, I'd also love to study whales, sea lions, and seahorses. I have to admit that I'm not really that interested in

studying fish and hope that I don't have to.

Assignment 2If I were to join a club while receiving my education

here at TTU, I would join the marine biology club. Even though it seems as if the marine biology club and the fisheries run

into each other I still would like to join it. Unfortunately, I don't have time to join a club right now but as my education

continues here I may make the time to join the club. The marine biology club sounds the most interesting even though it was the least discussed. Joining a club however would be hard for me because I'm not much of a people person but in

the right environment I'm sure I could become more of a people person.
