Confusion about college choices...?

[harwarda]

There is a field right now called "Creative Non-Fiction". That is when people write about real events or people or subjects, but in an interesting way. A recent book that's being used in a lot of high school and college courses in the U.S. is called "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks". It's about a cancer patient whose cells were cloned and used by researchers all over the world without her family's knowledge. It was written by a former colleague of mine, who had to do a lot of research into the science behind the story.
There are also many publications that print article for general readers on scientific and health care subjects- in the U.S., examples include Scientific American and Psychology Today. You might be able to get some of the articles online.

So if you study health care, you might then be able to have a career writing about it for general readers. It would be a way of combining your two interests.
