Well, General Eduction classes are defiantly not my favorite, I never really looked forward to taking gen ed classes. Most of my Gen Ed classes I have taken in my education were from Ivy Tech Community College and AI Online. I recall my two favorite Gen Ed classes which are Psychology and Art History. I still have assignment handouts from psychology. I found that class so interesting, I really enjoyed it, especially learning how to hypnotise yourself. I also really enjoyed my Art History class, my favorite book is Gardner's Art Through the Ages.
Even though I dreaded these classes I am happy I experienced them. Now I'm going to be honest, this class falls in the same category as many of my other Gen Ed class, not really my favorite right now, however, I still have an open mind.
With all this said, I do think Gen Ed classes are definitely needed. They teach the most basic knowledge that people need for example math and English, even though English still is a struggle for me and I've been using it for over 30 years. They do make you a more rounded individual. I think some of the class could be dropped from the curriculum or at the least tweaked to meet the degrees being studied but that's just my opinion.

A Little About How I Feel...
I'm a very busy lady. I have a full time job that at times is very demanding. I work in the medical field, handling patient medical records. This position requires attention to details, accuracy, organization skill, patient confidentiality among many other skills. I have learned a lot from working in the medical field for the past 5 year. Along with working a full time job I have been attending AI. I have struggled from time to time with keeping up with work and school and now to add to this I have a 4 month old little boy.
At AI I have learned so much but time there goes by so quickly, it makes me feel that once I'm out on my own I won't remember the most basics in design. Don't get me wrong I can't wait to graduate but it's nice to know you have someone to turn to for help if you're struggling with something, in the real world that isn't always the case. Life is hard and can be a struggle, I struggle all the time but somehow I make it through. I know the field I choose for my career is a very competitive industry, which makes me very intimidated. I have to believe in myself. When I leave AI I want to feel confident in my abilities and skills to enter into the fashion world.
