about subject choices for Semester 1 2011

So, the dilemma: Media Politics (Government) or American Foundations (American Studies/History) The way the Media and Communications degree works means I only get one elected unit for semester one other than french, and then only french as an elective in semester two. So I could do both, and no french, and then do some cool government subjects in

decide between GOVT2603 - AMST2601 - French

These days it is essential to understand the US process and roots of decision making, not so the French. Your decision is between studying french with a friend and profession... self explanatory? Media Politics is a must, or else believe the opposition, oops I mean the government, no no, don't believe either. Better still: study it. Danny will always be your friend regardless.

Study what you most want to study. If you have a passion for French, keep it. But if you think you have more passion for both American Study and Media and Politics, then go with those. But honestly I think French and Media Politics will probably be more useful than American Study. -shrug- idk. The thing that I do know most is that you HAVE to go with what you're passionate about, have have have to. Don't sell out.

I'm with Marie. I feel like Media Politics would be more useful than American Studies. And I think languages are awesome, especially if you enjoy it, and can be quite useful eventually.

Media politics is the way to go

Without being biased, I think media politics is the way to go. The unit of study shows it will be interesting, with some funky project options. Check out its tumblr page: http://govt2603.tumblr.com/ and you can follow it on twitter @govt2603
