[email protected] (760) 366-3791 ext. 5869 When I enrolled at CMC I wanted to major in Sociology, but that degree was not offered. And so my quest for a major began. I took classes in Political Science, Philosophy, History, Psychology and yes, Sociology and found that I loved them all. I came to the conclusion that I did not have to choose just one, and could major in Social Science, which has a bit of all of them, SCORE! I didn’t have a career in mind at the time I chose my major, I just knew I wanted to help people. During your time at CMC visit a counselor on a regular basis to make sure you are on track and speak to your instructors, they have a wealth of knowledge. I knew that I wanted to continue with my education as soon as I completed my first semester at CMC. I was a single parent and had two children to support. I was aware that the further I went the better my chances were to give them a better life. I have to be honest, I really didn’t research universities. As I said I was a single mom and could not afford to move. I picked a campus that I could drive to, California State University San Bernardino (CSUSB).
