  2006, Comparative History of Ideas (BA), Communication (BA)  Peace Corp / Job Search due to COVID-19

I thought I would be a dentist, so I was taking lots of science classes. Later, after I realized I didn't want to continue studying science, I was taking a course about the history of science and religion that was co-listed with History, Anthropology, and Comparative History of Ideas (CHID). I met some CHID students in that course and it sounded like a perfect fit for me. I met with the CHID advisor and decided to do a double degree with CHID and Communication!
