Cornell Supplement in Economics

<p>Hey guys! I’m trying to write my Cornell Supplement, the one where it asks to expand on my “intellectual interests”. I’m applying to the College of Arts and Sciences as an Economics major. In most of the sites I’ve seen, people start off with an interesting anecdote. I’ve lived around the world, so I’ve seen varying economic environments, but I’m not sure what type of anecdote fits with economics. Any ideas?</p>
