I’m from Muir so I don’t know much about Sixth other than that you guys live in little townhouses where each floor shares a living room area. Most of the Sixth people I know ended up becoming really good friends with their housemates, so that’s always a good thing. I personally don’t like [Foodworx (Sixth Dining Store)](http://hds.ucsd.edu/diningservices/menu/MenuDisplay.aspx?FacilityID=11) but other people who go there more often might have more to say.

Political Science as a major really isn’t all that hard, provided you stay up-to-date on readings and choose the right classes/teachers. Just make sure you plan ahead so you can get all your upper division classes done when you want them. It helps if you have clearances from AP Government tests so you can clear Poli 10/11. That way, the major will really only require you to take 13 classes (Poli 30 and the 12 Upper Divisions).

I don’t know much about the Theatre program, but if you decide to double major, it’ll allow you to raise your maximum unit allowance so you can stay more time to finish it all up if you need to. I would start out in Political Science and talk to Theatre advisers and take some intro classes to see how you like it first. Good luck!
