What I like about my major is how diverse you really see the world and how having culture is one common thing among everyone.

There’s a lot of diversity with subjects. This major is a great stepping stone for me to learn more about all kinds of topics along the way to my degree.

I was always intrigued by other cultures as well as my own. Combining that with human life and its interactions, I knew Anthropology was the major for me.

I didn’t understand what anthropology was until I came here. Working with professors really made me realize that this was the field I wanted to go into.
