Hi. Im currently majoring in journalism. I am required to pick an area of concentration (same as a minor) and I’m a little conflicted. I dont know yet if I actually want to have a career as a journalist, but after doing extensive research, I have decided that it is a good major that I will enjoy and that IS employable in fields other than journalism. (YAY!). Possible minors:
English: seems good except I’m worried that it might be redundant to do an english minor since I’m majoring in journalism.
Anthropology: I like learning about different cultures
Public relations: more writing but I dont really want a career as some kind of a professional manipulator or whatever.
Humanities: classes about romans, greeks, etc… sorta like philosophy & history combined.
Basically I just want to hear from anyone who has studied any of these subjects and tell me how they have enhanced your career, life, etc..
At the end of the day, I know that I must make the decision for myself.

USA - Russian Federation:
Why the US Department of State claims that the forthcoming Sunday’s parliamentary elections in Russia are expected to be unfair? (if some press records are to be trusted)
Or is it just another press brainwash?
What do you think such their prejudice is based on? On the contrary, Russia is no longer in communism and it is on the way to democracy …

Or are my only options to have a degree in journalism, communications, marketing or sociology? I live in the Detroit area and community colleges that offer these above fields of study seem to be very few and far between. I’ve found one nearby however, that offers a liberal arts degree. Any advice from those in the PR field would be greatly appreciated!

I want to be a publicist, hopefully a music publicist. Unfortunately no universities around me offer Public Relations, Communications or Media Studies. The closest degree was a Bachelor of Business with a major in Marketing. Will it be possible to pursue a career in public relations with this degree?
