How to Survive Your First Year of University
Chose a program that you love. When going through the view books at all of your university choices, you need to chose something that calls to you. Chose a major that you have always found interest in. Something you genuinely feel passionate about. This is the main topic and subject area that you will be learning about for the next four years, and what you want the rest of your life to be centred around after you graduate (no pressure). If you feel passionate about more than one thing, then pick both a major in one subject area, and a minor in another. If you can't chose between the two, and you're feeling ambitious, major in both! The important thing is to chose something that you really want to do, something that means something to you, and something you have put a lot of thought into.

Underappreciated Music Programs in Education
Budget cuts throughout the U.S. have caused severe losses in funding to public school music programs. Furthermore, under appreciated programs then suffer because of low participation rates, lack of equipment, and district priorities. This leads music in schools to be viewed as nerdy, uncool, and boring. This negative outlook and lack of participation has created an unequal balance of funding in schools. Schools are far more likely to designate their funds to the attractive and crowd-pleasing sports programs rather than to the disadvantaged music programs. This leaves these rejected groups to scrounge for money on their own.
