I decided to make psychology my major during the first semester of my sophomore year. This was after a long struggle with not knowing what to major in, I was undecided all of my freshman year, and after taking the child development psychology class, I decided psychology was something I was strongly interested in. It was interesting to learn how small events in early childhood could impact one’s social and mental capabilities later in life. Thus, I decided that I wanted to pursue this and potentially work with children, either in psychology or whatever I decided I would be interested in during Graduate school. I am hoping that at Duquesne, I can pursue a degree in Psychology and Communications, both being majors that will help me later in life
