Major: Chemistry (This Major's Salary over time)
My experience as a chemistry major at Houghton has been both intellectually challenging and rewarding. Chemistry is not easy, and i have come to appreciate the challenge of mastering a difficult subject well. Having been accepted into a number of PhD programs, I am leaving Houghton with an excellent preparation for graduate shcool, and in many ways it is significantly better than what larger and more prestigous universities offer. I have also learned many lessons that extend beyond chemistry: hard work, perseverence, patience, and discipline. Learning in a Christian atmosphere, under the guidance of excellent professors has been a wonderful opportunity. The quality of my professors, the high standards they have set, and their desire to see their students learn has been central to my experience and education at Houghton.
