I decided to come to Western Oregon University to major in Sociology for several reasons. 

00:00:08.000 --> 00:00:11.000
One because my sister came here and she really liked it,

00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:16.000
And secondly because I came from a small high school and wanted to maintain that one on one with faculty.

This term for my sociology major, a course that I'm taking is Classical Theory. 

00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:33.000
In Classical Theory, we covered selected theories such as Karl Marx and Max Webber, 

00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:37.000
And we learn about society and how it shapes and changes our lives. 

00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:40.000
Another great thing about Western is the writing center.

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:46.000
Right now I'm working on senior research paper and they help me on citations, references and APA format. 

00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:48.000
It's my go to place on campus. 

00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:56.000
My career goal is to be a social worker. Getting my degree at Western will help me obtain my masters and hopefully I'll be able to make a difference in people's lives. 

00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:64.000
I'm really happy with my decision to attend Western and I would recommend other students come here because it's already been an unforgettable experience for me. 

00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:08.000
Western Oregon University is the right place for me.
