Why Choosing a Major is Not Choosing a Career and not the end of the world) Kyle Bures, Neosho County Community College

Making the decision to attend college is no small task for many of our students. Perhaps one of the
biggest student misconceptions is that choosing a major locks students into one career for the rest of their
lives. Students fear that if they make the wrong decision now they will waste thousands of dollars and be
stuck in a career they hate. This misconception is often fueled by parents and family who pressure students
into "following the money." Obviously if a student wants to be a nurse, then a nursing degree is needed - but
a nursing degree (or any degree, for that matter) also equips graduates with a set of skills and abilities that
can be applied to any number of employment opportunities.
