Although Tirranny Nettles changed her major from nursing to marketing, she’s not worried about finding a job when she graduates.
“I’m doing something I enjoy,” she says.
Nettles, a two thousand nine graduate from Moss Point, is a sophomore at the University of Mississippi.
Stuck in a major that she admits was boring, Nettles was at first hesitant to change her major.
“I didn’t want to be that indecisive student.”
Two weeks ago, Nettles decided to make the change and is very happy with her decision.
“My new major makes me smile.”
Although nurses are in high demand, Nettles believes she will have many options with a marketing degree from the business school at Ole Miss.
“You can do anything with a marketing communications major.”
Nettles enjoys talking to people, and enjoys the relationships she builds with her fellow students and faculty.
She really likes her journalism one-oh-two class, and the creativity the class cultivates.
“You’re not forced. You can do any aspect of multimedia.”
Nettles plans on graduating with a marketing and communications degree, but is keeping an open mind about a journalism degree.
“I could maybe do a double major.”
Nettles is very happy at Ole Miss, and says she fell in love with the school when she first visited. Now it feels like a new home.
“I went home to Moss Point for three weeks and almost died.”
Nettles says Ole Miss has allowed her to grow up, and with that growth comes a desire to follow her dreams.
“Passion takes over pay.”
