End of The Semester

This semester has exposed me to the topic of interest groups. When we were originally given the assignment I chose the topic of Elder Care i chose it because my grandma had just suffered a major stroke and I wanted to look into what kind of care she would be able to get in addition to that of the family support. Since that time my grandma has passed away but that experience of watching what was going on with her opened my eyes to Elder Care even more. The most disappointing part of this assignment was the lack of historical polls which made writing my issue history paper difficult. All in all this semester has been very interesting and packed full of information.
