I believe my daughter doesn’t really know what she wants to do. She enjoys painting and ceramics but doesn’t see herself pursuing a full-time career as an artist. I think she is also quite practical and doesn’t want to be a “struggling artist”. It’s only in the past 2 years that she has started to really enjoy her math and science classes. She regrets not taking a science research class and is under the impression that she may enjoy doing this in the future. She has shyed away from CS, as that is her older sister"s “thing” but I actually think she may enjoy that as well. When she interned at her local art center, she designed very artistic and creative flyers for their website, making me think graphic design could be an option as well (or that major at Stevens). I think the only thing she has ruled out is a humanitites major, such as English or History.
