As you guys probably know, I'm doing my minor in Special Education. When I first came to college I thought this was what I wanted to do, but quickly came to the realization that I didn't want a classroom, and I wanted a more focused and one-on-one environment so I switched to Communication Disorders. I still want to work with special needs children and really enjoy my special ed classes. So far in all of my special ed classes, my professors always tell me what a great student I am, what a deep thinker I am, etc., etc. Now this may be a little selfish but I guess sometimes it would be nice to get this same affirmation from professors in my actual major. I realize that just by the nature of their subjects, the professors will not only have different teaching styles, but will also probably differ in how they interact with students. It would still be nice to have that affirmation that I made a good choice when choosing this major and that I will continue to do well into grad school.
