Minor in Sustainability Studies
The core principle of sustainability is the desire to meet the basic material needs of the current generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs.

How did you choose your degree program?
I was very interested in becoming a journalist in high school so I looked for a college that gave me the opportunity to pursue that. However, I was also aware that my interests may change so I liked the flexibility that Mason's Communication offered me since I was still able to take electives outside of Journalism curriculum. I'm glad to have chosen the Communication BA program at Mason because my interests did change but due to the curriculum I still have a strong writing portfolio that will be helpful in my job search.
What accomplishment(s) during your time at Mason are you most proud of?
