     When I started my first year at Baruch I came in with a set idea of what it was that I wanted to major in. There was a reason why I chose this college to pursue higher education and I was also aware that it was known for mainly one thing which was business. However, when I attended the Majors and Minors fair Thursday during club hours, I realized there was so much more that Baruch had to offer in its academics. After going to that fair I would think twice before I said that Baruch did not have a variety of majors. There were students and professors from all walks of life coming together to promote their majors and inform mostly Freshmen and Sophomores about the variety of majors that are available at our institution. Though majority of the students go for business and accounting, I found great interest in Computer Information Systems (CIS). The professors seemed very passionate and I knew that it was something that I would not mind doing as a career. Another thing that I found interesting was how many people are willing to help at Baruch. It is not an easy process to decide  on what you want to pursue a degree in and opportunities to explore option is exactly what is needed to help ease that trouble and anxiety. I know that this something I’m always thinking about and doubting myself about because I do not know if I am making the right decision and constantly worry about the smallest of things. However, this fair showed me that I am going to be fine no matter what I decide to study as long as I am passionate and have the right people to guide me. Overall, I would recommend that everybody go to the next possible Majors and Minors fair even if they are sure about they want to major in because it provides a great deal of useful information.
