1. Social Media and Espionage
This cannot be denied. We all need to get our intel. Whether it be for a future job position, spying on your best friend, or making sure your special someone isn't making moves… Social Media Espionage would be a hit. It would even look pretty great on your résumé. Who knows? Maybe this will spark an interest in you to work for the CIA one day.
2. Travel and Tour
Imagine a minor that offered classes for the tourist in you. We would be taught about the language and travel to our favorite destinations while getting a boost to our degree from it. We could learn enough of the native language to get around, and go on study abroad classes, where we would immerse in that culture.
3. Study Skills
Contrary to common belief, great study skills are not an innate characteristic of the college student. Not everyone learns in the same kind of way and for some people studying is actually quite difficult. Classes focused on time management, reading comprehension, and attention span training would maximize our grades and efficiency in college.
4. Baking
This would be my dream. Every student in a hectic major needs some down time and some classes that they can actually enjoy. I know being able to take a break from all the science and math classes that are a pre-med student’s life, would be an amazing opportunity to learn a life long skill as well as de-stress. Plus, I would get to eat it all and if an “apple a day keeps the doctor away” then “a cupcake a day keeps a college kid happy”.
5. Blogging
It really is not that easy. Blogging has become an actual profession, and a quite coveted one at that. Bloggers are out there getting free clothes, make up and goodies for free from sponsors, just for making reviews and cute youtube videos. UMM…HELLO! Where can I sign up? This minor would offer classes for building your own website and purchasing your domain, creating a large follower base of interest, and even marketing yourself on mass media.
6. Slay the Make-up Game
This would be a useful skill for the remainder of any girl’s life. By being able to take classes in cosmetology and appearance we would be able to make sure we always represent ourselves in the best way possible. I don’t know about you but there are some crazy makeovers on the internet and some of these artists, I swear work magic. If you would like to be able to slay your own face each morning by learning the right way, this minor would be perfect for you!
These are just 6 minors I wish my school had…. What about you?
