Exercise Science
I’ve enjoyed all the exercise science courses I’ve taken especially because of how hands-on the labs are that you really get to engage in the subject. I am pursuing dentistry as a career and while it’s a unique path to take with this major, I have a wide scope of knowledge in exercise science that sets me apart from other students. I have learned so much about exercise and health and this all very much relates to your oral health!

Global Studies
Global Studies has given me an immensely global perspective to my biology passion, and how the health and environmental issues affecting our planet need global solutions. It is a major I would unreservedly recommend to anyone wishing to find a way to explore a different discipline in college or looking for a more well-rounded perspective to any other major.

Spanish
My travel seminar Treasures of Peru, taught by Dr. Fiore and Dr. Claussen, was one of the greatest experiences of my life. The opportunity to learn the Peruvian dialect was an indispensable experience in helping me understand Spanish as a living language while refining what I had learned in the classroom at Cal Lutheran. I now have a more holistic view of what it means to be a Spanish learner and how my major intersects with culture and people, going beyond language.
