“explain it to me like I’m five” 👶

Our student ambassadors took on the challenge of explaining their majors in the simplest way possible — from political science and theatre arts to computational biology, law, criminal justice and society, and more.

Still have questions? Come meet the people who actually study this stuff at the Dietrich School and College of General Studies Academic Fair!

📍 Posvar Galleria
📅 Friday, Aug. 21
⏰ 11:30 a.m.–1:30 p.m.

Come find your major. Or, at the very least, find someone who can explain it to you like you’re five. 😂
