College major and minor

After spending 4 years in highschool i was given very little exposure of what other fields are out their other than journalism, which is the only field our school offers us to expose to since we are a journalism based school. Although many of the possible majors did seem quite foreign to me, I eventually came to choosing marketing as my major and sociology as my minor. Marketing seemed attractive to me because I enjoy the whole aspect of speaking in front of people and coming up with creative ideas to get people's attention. Although I was never fond of group work, I am confident that i will overcome this fear because this is much of what marketing entails. Sociology seems interesting to me because it deals with the study of relationships between people and I feel you would need to have an understanding of this if you want to go into marketing and advertising. Overall I am not sure if these 2 choices will stick out through the remainder of college, however I remain confident that I will be given the opportunity of exposing myself to new ideas and material throughout college. Something in High school that I did not get the opportunity to recieve.
