<p>which is nicest for a double-major w/ CAPS (China and Asia-Pacific Studies)? I want to be writing a lot. I'm currently enrolled in two English courses but I can't help feeling like I'm wasting my time. History and GOVT/PoliSci are starting to look more practical. Do History majors write as much as English majors? What about Government majors? Even if I write less as a History major than I do as an English major, I feel like I'll be writing about more relevant & contemporary issues.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>

I have to be frank here: you're a freshman and you're still in the first week of classes. The work will appear, trust me!

<p>my problem is with the material, not the workload. I feel like employers won't care about my knowledge of Chaucer, however extensive; HIST and GOVT courses, on the other hand, look more practical</p>

<p>potential employer: what are your strengths?
me: I read the Canterbury Tales in college
potential employer: We'll call you.</p>
<p>I also have less time to fool around with electives than do other freshmen because I want to pick up a double-major and participate in the FALCON program next year</p>
