Okay, I'm sorry if you already know each other's majors, but I don't know anyone's. Except Jason's. Anyway, what is everybody's major, minor/cluster, and why?
I'll go first.
I'm a computer science major, but I'm thinking of switching over to Psychology. I want a minor in Spanish or philosophy. I chose computer science because I like computers, and I love logic games, which is essentially all a computer is. I am thinking of switching over to psychology because it's a topic that I am well acquainted with, and it makes me realize that my ideas aren't so crazy, since they have already been thought up and tested.
I want to minor in Spanish because I love foreign languages, and I know a good deal of Spanish. I like philosophy because it provides a fascinating viewpoint for the world.

I'm an English Education major and I kinda have to minor in Education. I may try to double minor in English as well, but I'm not sure. I'm an English Ed major because I like English and I like teaching. Enough said.

Well, I'm a computer science major because I like computers, and I like making things. They kinda go hand in hand. I'm not totally sure I want to stick with this major, but, for the time being, it looks as though I will. As for a minor, I have none, mostly because, as I understand it, there really just isn't enough room in the credit limit for a CS major to have a minor. However, if I were to have a minor, I would want an English minor. Don't know why, just do. Like English a bit, I guess. What I get for being a writer.

major is Rec. Leadership, and Minor is Natural Resources. with the combination of the two, i hope to be able to live my dream and become a natl. park ranger. one of the most fun sounding classes that i get to take is Soc. 207. Wilderness Law Enforcement. i get to lean how to shoot a gun, and how to arrest people, and things like that. i should be interesting.

I am a Horticulture major, English minor, but I'm thinking I'll change to English cluster. I don't like writing essays and only one or so of the English classes I'd have to take appeal to me. I'm sticking with some English because I want to write novels. I don't know what my second cluster will be.

You might consider a Journalism minor, then. I have been thinking about it, since I want to write as well, if I could fit a minor. But, Journalism is a bit more geared toward that sort of thing. Maybe.

I am an Art major (I bet no one who's ever been to my apartment could have guessed that). I'm also planning to do an art cluster, but I'm not sure what my other cluster would be.

jason, you told me taht you cant have a minor. that, and i had heard it from so many other cs majors that i figured taht you cant have one. mayhaps you should start out looking to see if you actually can HAVE a minor.

So I've heard, and with how many creds it takes for a CS major (120), it's unlikely that I'll get one. But I'm gonna see if I can.

i wouldnt push it. you are supposed to graduate once you have about 120 credits, so unless you want to graduate without a BS in CS, then i wouldnt bother.
