- [00:00:15.530]Hello.
- [00:00:16.363]My name is Gracie Williams
- [00:00:17.400]and I am a senior from Broken Bow, Nebraska.
- [00:00:19.720]Majoring in English Language Arts Education
- [00:00:21.880]with a minor in art.
- [00:00:23.240]Though I'm confident in telling you my major right now,
- [00:00:25.820]I couldn't have been more insecure
- [00:00:27.230]coming in as a freshman to UNL.
- [00:00:29.360]I had so many different interests
- [00:00:30.850]and passions in high school that made finding
- [00:00:33.130]a major seemingly impossible.
- [00:00:35.180]And for a person who loves to plan
- [00:00:37.050]this seriously stressed me out.
- [00:00:39.150]However, I was given confidence in my decision
- [00:00:41.560]knowing that the explore center
- [00:00:43.000]at UNL was designed specifically for students like me.
- [00:00:46.510]My advisor told me to take advantage of my ACE requirements
- [00:00:49.420]and pick courses that I found interesting
- [00:00:51.570]not just courses that seemed easy.
- [00:00:53.710]Taking his advice I chose two classes that turned out
- [00:00:56.640]to be extremely influential in making my career choice,
- [00:01:00.080]sociology and creative writing.
- [00:01:02.800]In my sociology class,
- [00:01:04.340]I noticed that I took particular interest
- [00:01:06.560]in educational disparities.
- [00:01:08.280]While on creative writing, I loved helping my fellow
- [00:01:11.070]classmates workshop their writing.
- [00:01:13.470]Luckily my William H. Thompson Scholars mentor Jody
- [00:01:16.610]helped me put the pieces together.
- [00:01:18.790]Trust me I know that coming to UNL undeclared
- [00:01:21.830]can be seriously nerve wracking.
- [00:01:24.000]But rest assured there are endless opportunities
- [00:01:26.320]to help you explore your interests and receive guidance
- [00:01:28.790]here at the university.
- [00:01:30.230]My best advice, don't settle.
- [00:01:32.520]Find a major that you're excited about.
- [00:01:34.950]Now, as I approach my senior year
- [00:01:36.980]I am grateful for those who helped guide me
- [00:01:38.910]through my collegiate experience of undeclared exploration
- [00:01:42.240]into a major that has truly made me love learning.
- [00:01:46.722](upbeat calm music)
