So, this is up to the school?

I am a junior. I begin nursing courses this August.

I've always wondered what it meant to have a minor in something. I have been looking into available minor degree plans at Texas A&M Corpus Christi. I have asked my adviser and my mentor about picking a minor. What are the options? What would be the best option. Would this be beneficial in my future endeavors? I've pretty much gotten the same answer from everyone on the subject - they are not mandatory, and most nursing students pick psychology. I am starting the BSN program in August. Eventually, I would like to study to become a nurse midwife. TAMUCC offers a minor in women/gender studies that sounds fascinating. My adviser suggested that I talk to someone who is familiar with labor and delivery to get their opinion. The classes sound fascinating! I am really hoping that minoring in women/gender studies would be suitable for my future. Any thoughts?

Same here! I'm anxious, nervous, and just a whirlwind of emotions! I hope I can do this. Good luck!
