    Major: English
    Minor: Writing

    Now, I can speak my native language REALLY WELL.

    :laugh: Same here, without the minor. I had a teaching certificate in the works, until I discovered that I hate teaching high school :ohwell: Now I'm saving up money to take a class on grant writing.

    Note to people who think of college as a white collar ticket to a job: My degree was worthless. What I learned on the Internet on my own time was worth everything.

    Double majoring in Psychology and Accounting. I started in psych (with 2 minors required, Sociology and Biology), but realized that without an advanced degree psych is essentially useless. Discovered my love for Accounting and haven't looked back! I will have a minor in Bus. Administration as well (my school wants us to be well rounded...).

    Awesome! I've been debating a PhD in Cultural Anthropology, but that'd be a ways off. Gotta finish my Master's first :P

    I have changed many times, but right now I'm Majoring in humanities with a minor in East Asian studies with a focus on Japanese. I figure I'm living here and it would be a good way to learn the language and I really want to stay here.

    Although I like working with my clients (still in internship, graduate in May!), it seems like it would be much easier to get a job if I worked with computers.
