Majors
In my oral communications classes, I teach graduate students and upperclassmen from all over the university. The course is required for all non-English majors. At the first class, I had them stand up, say who they were, where they were from, and what they were majoring in. Most are studying subjects with which we are familiar-- mathematics, marine biology, and computer science. But several students are in programs not offered at ETSU: Marxist education and information control, for example.

Hi Roz,
I think you should get one of your students to write a brief description of "Marxist education!"

Oh, that would be great!
I'd be interested in knowing the courses required for a major in "information control." I wonder if the major offers both violent and nonviolent or overt and clandestine concentrations. What sort of minor would go well with "information control"?
