Thankfully, I’m at a place where I don’t have to keep my head down and just focus on one thing. I can take classes and do projects that align with my interests, not just my major … My first-year seminar was an art history class. Art has always been an interest of mine, and the class fueled that passion. The curriculum encourages you to take classes beyond your major.”
