with Academic Success seminars this quarter

Contributing Writer
When Tracienne Ravita came to
the University as a freshman, she
thought she might major in bi
ology N’ow that she’s a junior, she's
wondering if she made the right
decision.
Rav.ta attended the workshop
"Choosing a Major’ Thursday to
help resolve her “major” dilemma
“I am unsure about biology," she
said. “1 want to see what the op
tions are ”
The seminar is part of the Aca
demic Success ser.es sponsored by
Clark Howell Hall which will be
running throughout winter
; uarter
Janice Smith, University coun
seling psychologist, led the 90-
minute seminar to assist students
like Ravita in the selection of a
major.
“Many majors don’t translate di

said. The world of work changes —

they retire.’
Smith said 90 percent of stu

set major in mind change while at
school. Some students only know
what field, while others change
three to five times.

students an opportunity for expo

world. Smith said. She advises un
certain students to browse other
departmental textbooks in the
bookstore to check their interests
Seminar participants complete a
survey booklet ranking personal
values such as independence, lead
ership and prestige Students also
rank their interests in areas
ranging from jewelry and watch re
pair to carrying out scientific ex-
perimena. Results correspond to
six categories in which possible in
terests lie: crafts, sciences, arts,
business, clerical and sodal.
The quarterly seminar is de
signed to steer studena in a direc
tion. Smith said, “but you're not
going: to walk out of here with a
firm idea of a major ’
Rhonda Brown, a sophomore po
litical science major was unsure
about her major when she attended
the seminar. Originally a finance
major, she thought the seminar
helped because “it showed how stu
dents can explore interests," she
said.
The counseling and testing
center also offers a similar coun
seling service year-round. Smith
said 127 students participated in
the program during the fall
quarter.
The Academic Success series
continues today at 3:30 p.m. with a
class discussing “Effective Study
Skills’
Future classes include:
• “Whole Brain Learning" on

• “How to take testa” on Feb. 15.
