I’m a Finance and Accounting double major. While my advisor would love for me to Minor in Economics, I needed a mental break. So, I ended up taking some off-the-wall classes that just sounded interesting that ended up changing how I look at the world. I took Evolution of Human Sexual Behavior, an Anthropology class, and learned so much about how you can read our ancestor’s reproductive choices just by looking at our biology and anatomy. In Craft in America, I learned about some of the oldest forms of craft that are still practiced in the United States as well as the intersection of digital life, fabrics, and neuro-tracing. In Harry Potter and American Culture, we looked at these modern classics through a lens of feminism, ablism, and classism. Which I can’t turn these lenses off now. Almost all of the media I consume is now looked at through these critical views. From the theater department, I took Dance Conditioning and Costuming Technology, both of which gave me a greater appreciation of my physical body and taught me actual life skills, flexibility training and sewing. I’m currently taking Detective Fiction Writing, and I’m enjoying it immensely. Where else, other than a strong liberal arts university, are you given the opportunity to take oddball classes that change how you look at the world.
