Ashlee’s 4th Blog post (Enrichment Workshop Post)

My enrichment workshop was the further-in-depth exploration of research/source citation skills, using FOCUS 2 survey from the STARR program. Taking this survey changed many things for me. I came into Baruch thinking that English would be my major. I want to become a lawyer so I can become a judge and not any old judge, a great judge. I thought that doing English would prepare me by improving my writing and orating skills. When I did the FOCUS 2, it showed me the majors for specific jobs and the amount I can make in one year. I looked for my occupation and found that my major should be Political Science and Government. I was a bit relieved because I enjoy politics. I want to change lives and be able to help people and my country. I want to be the next Olivia Pope. I want to be a part of history. I also learned that I am very responsible and I want to do my job efficiently. This workshop opened my eyes and helped me choose the right major for the career I want to pursue. I do want to double major, so I will push forward and do my best. My career in law will be great and I am determined to be successful.
