What do you Love about your major?
I love how the English major offers opportunities to engage creatively with a wide variety of materials, ranging from novels to songs, poems, pastiches, short stories, essays, and more. This variety, openness of interpretation, and the possibilities for discussion with my peers make my major exciting and fulfilling.

What do you love about your major?
I love how my media literacy has developed. To decipher the constant flow of information from the screens that surround us gives me a sense of agency and liberty. My major has shown me the power of an image, how what is portrayed has such potency, creating opportunity and responsibility for filmmakers.

What do you Love about your major?
I love that I get to learn about trauma care and human development as inextricably linked with the way we go about education. Education is about caring for the whole person. As for Arabic, my minor, I love it because it helps me to challenge my brain to think in a new way. It's important to be able to communicate with people in their own language. I am reminded that the world is bigger than my bubble of culture and there is beauty in this journey to try to know and understand it.
