Why did you decide to be a Geology Major?

I have always planned to be a Business Major, then to get a major or minor in Spanish, and then in the future get an MBA. Upon returning from my mission I received counsel from various people to get a degree other than in business so that I could specialize in a particular field and thus be more effective in the business world. I decided to look for a different major to supplement a Spanish Minor and the future possibility of an MBA. Last fall I took Geology 101 from Professor Skinner as a GE and I loved it! I enjoyed reading the books, doing the labs, asking questions in class, and applying what I learned in my daily activities. I decided to take Geol 112 in the Winter and make up the Geol 111 Lab so that I would be on track. Dr. Ritter's class was great too! As the semester progressed I became more and more convinced that I wanted to be a Geology Major. The more I advance in the program the more excited I get about what the future may hold!
