Quick bio

Hello, my name is Alexander Wingate. I am currently a biology major at Purdue University North Central. I graduated from Chesterton Senior High School in June 2010. I decided to attend PNC because of its closeness to home, since I didn't feel the need to go to Purdue West Lafayette because I knew I would end up being a party animal down there and ultimately drop out of school, and be completely screwed over. Along with the fact I didn't want to leave my girlfriend Kristin here at home, in Chesterton, I decided to attend PNC. And now I have chosen to stay here the entire 3 years because I can get my degree in Biology in only 3 years. My only real goal right now is to graduated from PNC and then move into medical school. Although I do not foresee myself being in medicine for very long, because I always have wanted to own a business, I will probably end up doing that and hope to be very successful.

The issue I will be discussing is Nuclear energy. This has been one of my favorite issues since although i know a  great deal there is still plenty of things I want to explore about it, especially with the most recent happenings in Japan with their nuclear reactor in Fukushima not being able to cool down and causing a giant public scare.

  1. I'd liek ot know how many of those GE created first-generation reactors are still operational in the US and the world. They seem to be trouble.

  2. With the recent events in japan do you think the world will evalute their position with nuclear power. If so by what other means could they use for power generation.

  3. Nuclear energy is a big topic now, especially over in Japan. One thing that would be nice to know about nuclear energy is that how important is it to us and what can it be used for? I think that using this lastest Japan earthquake as an example for your topic would be a good idea.
