As I’m coming to an end of my first year at Santa Clara, I’ve reflected and discovered that the only thing I’ve learned more about than laundry is research. I still hate both but thanks to this first year, I won’t have problems with either during the rest of my time at SCU.

For the article I found for last class, I relied on good old Google to do the job. Since my topic for further research will be on how addition of football teams have influenced universities, I searched “addition of college football” and found an articled titled “Four New College Football Teams Take the Field in 2015.” This article talks about the four new football teams added in 2015 (can always judge an article by it’s title, huh?) and gives a list of previous football team that have been added dating back to 2008 and programs that are set to take the stage in 2016-2018. From this article I will choose a few of these teams that play for schools similar to SCU and do some research on their performance and how the schools have been affected.

(not the kind of effect I will be researching…) Giphy

I found the tutorial to be very helpful. A lot of the information I’ve learned before whether it be in this class or another but still important to be reminded of it. It does address stumbling blocks I may face and definitely clarifies what professors are asking for.
