Picking a College Major (From a Parent's Perspective)

As we approach August and the start of college, many incoming freshmen are putting a lot of thought into what their major – or majors – might be. Some have known for years what they want their degree to be, while others may take several more years, and several declarations of majors, to settle on the one they feel is right. In this episode of Gimme Some Truth, we revisit a topic that we've covered previously on the podcast to view it from a different angle, the perspective of a parent with college-aged children. Walkner Condon's Jonathon Jordan, who graduated from James Madison University with a degree in biotechnology, compares his own experience with how he's experienced the big degree decision from a different vantage point.
