Izak Johnson - “Largemouth Bass Pond Management” (session 9) My presentation will be covering my management processes of a pond in Saline County to create a healthier largemouth bass population in a pond. For starters, this pond is overstocked with bass. Too many bass and not enough food leads to bass to become stunted. This causes them to not grow much larger, or to stop growing all together. To improve the bass population in this pond I will begin by improving cover and structure in this pond. I will also remove smaller fish and relocate them to another pond that is on this property. One of my next steps will be to add much more food for the bass to eat in this pond. This will include crawfish, minnows, and smaller bluegill species. There are other species of fish in this pond that will also benefit from this. My management of this pond will be conducted over a three year span. I will catch and trap fish as I go to determine if my plans are working. Hopefully in three years an increase in bass size and overall population health will increase.

Allexis Lark, “Effective Communication in Sports” (session 19) As most people know, communication is an important and underrated life skill that everyone uses, especially in athletics. Communication in sports is an essential factor and primary determinant in the win or loss of an athletics team. In order for coaches, captains, and players to develop trust amongst everyone on their team, they must be able to communicate effectively. This project will attempt to explore, compare and contrast, and determine what could possibly be the most effective forms of communication. Content to be covered in this presentation will include common sport situations and what communication methods would be most effective.

Zodiac signs and horoscopes have become a popular topic of interest amongst various groups of people. In my research paper I’ll be exploring the reasons as to why people, more specifically Missouri Valley College students believe in astrology by conducting interviews, and how
