Fall Major Expo is Oct. 19 at Marshall University

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – The University College unit of Marshall University is sponsoring the first Fall Major Expo, which is designed to give students who have not declared a major one central location where they can obtain information on the various majors offered at MU.

Students undecided on a major field of study or students conditionally admitted to Marshall are advised in University College, which consolidates and coordinates retention efforts at Marshall.

The Fall Major Expo takes place from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 19, on the Memorial Student Center plaza.  

Student and faculty representatives from Marshall’s colleges and departments will be available to discuss the various majors available in their units.  In addition to the factual information on each major, upper-class students will be available to share their firsthand knowledge of certain majors with students.

If the weather does not cooperate, the fall expo will take place in the student center lobby. The annual Academic Expo, which also assists students undecided on a major, is planned for next spring.

For more information on the fall expo, persons may call Randolph B. Cullum with University College at (304) 696-3252.
