Starred Major of the Month(s)
For this issue, the "starred major" will be Economics! To begin with, Economics is a popular subject among Tsinglan students. If you need proof, look at the number of your classmates and friends currently enrolled in IG Econ, AP Econ, or AL Econ classes. As a subject, economics is also a popular major and minor in college. According to the University of Chicago, economics majors "study how society allocates scarce resources."
