First Friday Focus: Major Exploration


Listen Later

Every first Friday of the month, we'll be focussing on a timely topic or event in the College. In today's episode, we sit down with Academic Advisors in the College Office to discuss some of the resources available to students this Fall semester to help them declare a major that's the right fit for them. We also hear from a student to hear about their journey exploring areas of interest before deciding their major.
