What aspects of a detective career might persuade me to pursue that route over becoming a criminal lawyer?

I am interested in being a detective more, I just really do not want to be a cop first, and have heard mixed things about this route. I am aware they both require way different schooling, I just don't know anyone personally with experience to ask about this.

Would double-majoring in Architecture as an Interior Design major give me more job opportunities ?

Would it be better to major in Architecture and minor in Interior Design, or could I do both and have them carry equal weight in my studies? I am more interested in Interior Design, but I feel like Architecture offers broader job opportunities. #Spring25

I am very interested in both clinical work and research when it comes to psychology and I am not exactly sure if I could chose one over the other at the moment. Is it possible to do both? How difficult will it be to manage compared to doing one or the other?

"If our world values art, kindness, innovation, and nature’s beauty, why do we still judge students mostly by their grades What other qualities should matter just as much?"#Spring25

In a world full of natural beauty and endless human creativity, it doesn’t make sense to judge students just by grades. A test score doesn’t show someone’s imagination, kindness, or how hard they try when no one’s looking. Real success isn’t something you can measure with numbers. Like a tree...
