Let's Get Down to Business

Today I had a meeting with Peggy Cerrito, a business teacher here at Augsburg.

I came to Augsburg knowing that I would be a film major, and I knew that I wanted to double major in something to fall back on... I'm still not sure what I'm going to do.

But when I talked to my R.A., Avery, and told him that I was interested in majoring in business, he told me that he would set up a meeting with Peggy. He said that he was an assistant for Peggy (or something like that), delivered her mail and stuff, and that she was a very nice woman. So today, he brought me up to her office and introduced me to her.

I ended up talking with Peggy about the Augsburg Business program for about 30 minutes... and she really sold it to me (like a real business woman, i guess). It actually made me pretty excited; she told me exactly what i was looking for.

I'm on the right track so far... I'm taking Marketing and Microeconomics next semester, and I really don't have to pick my Business emphasis for a while yet, but she definitely narrowed down my search.

I'm thinking of a business major with an emphasis in either: Economics, Management, Marketing, and possibly Financing (which I doubt).

Basically, it comes down to whatever emphasis i think will help me the most as a film maker.. I'm either leaning towards management or marketing, but I have a while to decide. Today definitely made me feel a lot better about the entire situation though... Peggy even gave me a free Augsburg mug as a kind of "welcome to the business program" gesture. She seems sooooo very nice.

I really can't wait until next semester now... ya, my classes will be much harder, but i'm just ready for my finals to be over...

I'm pretty stressed out right now.
