What are YOU majoring in?

Because I have no frikkin' idea what I want to do. And what classes are you guys taking 1st semester?

Right now I'm looking over Media Studies, English and Commerce as *possible* concentrations but class-wise, I can only think of

Spanish
Economics and
Philosophy.

HOO Boy.

I'm headed for the international orientation, hence my not being very well acquainted with ISIS yet. Anyone else going for the K session?

If you're thinking you might be headed to the McIntire school of commerce you might wanna go ahead and get the pre-requisite courses for transferring out of the way.

if you want to stay in the college, you can always do an interdisciplianry major- it will take a lot of planning and some paperwork im sure but its a good option if you have varied, yet interconnected, interests

I'll be majoring in physics, but I might double major in physics and math or physics and economics.

I'm really not sure yet. I guess it depends on how much I enjoy the material and how my after-college plans shape up.

BLEGH I HATE HATE HATE ISIS!

See, this is the problem with being an international student; all the stuff you want sure as hell is gone by the time you register. I could just break down and cry.

Okay, maybe not.

But I didn't get Public Relations, 19th C Russian Authors, or COMM 180 just to name a FEW.

Craptastic.

Calm down - try again this weekend/next week once ISIS opens up for all the other first years and people start adding/dropping courses.

ISIS opened yesterday for international students, but big crapload of help that does us. :P

Thanks bo_bombers, it's just that this whole college thing can get frustrating at times. I doubt the classes I want will open up though; PLIR101 and COMM180 are VERY, very popular.
