hi, hello & welcome to another blog. Let’s talk about next semester classes! whoop whoop! honestly, college is flying by. Sophomore year being over and having two years left will fly by like snapping your finger. I’m filled with so many emotions, probably not as many as the seniors graduating!
As a freshman I was pursuing the International Affairs major, but found a better fitting for me- SOAN (sociology & anthropology). And I waited a minute to find an academic advisor, now I’m happy and pleased with the one I have now, but I sure did learn a lesson.
TIP: do your professor research within the major you’re interested in pursuing.
This way you’ll have more confidence in your relationship with your faculty advisor and hopefully learn new things and do new things :)
*This can also be applied to courses you’ll take with professors. Check them out on ratemyprofessor.com and if you have the access- ask current students who may mirror your interests about their experience- with the professor and the class.
Junior Year classes :) Here's my plan & shortened course descriptions.
*promise the process can seem overwhelming at first, but it's also exciting to view all the courses lewis and clark has to offer accordingly.
