    For the EC members who are in college, what is your major? For those not yet in college, what are you thinking about majoring in if/when you go to college?

    I graduated last spring, but when I was still in college I was an English major. It was geared towards teaching, but I dabbled in a bit of writing and found it thoroughly enjoyable.

    I study two degrees, neither of which has a major/minor structure at all. I take law and PPE (politics, philosophy and economics).

    I intend to major in physics, and minor in computer science. Probably. Some sort of engineering is also a possible minor, as is linguistics or other language-y minors. It also depends if the college I attend will have the specific major/minor.

    I don't really get the whole major/minor stuff, but I'm studying translation (from English/Spanish to French, mostly).

    I got my first year credited because I did Cegep before, so while I'm in my second year, it's really my first year in university.

    In a really quick explanation, Majors are what you're focusing on in order to get a degree in a college/university and minors are smaller focuses you can add to the degree to boost it, normally minors will relate to and be beneficial to your Major.

    I'm going to major in fashion design. I'm considering doing a minor, though, in a foreign language. I'm a bit torn between French, Korean, and Japanese. French and Korean because France and Korea are big in the fashion world, but I'm also interested in Korean because I really like East Asian cultures a lot, which is why I'm also thinking of Japanese.
