Throughout my three years here at Monmouth, I have relished in the idea of being a communication major.  My entire life, I have loved interacting with people and discovering who they truly are, which in turn, helps me to better understand myself.  Whether I am giving an oratory, writing a term paper, or simply chatting with my friends in the cafeteria, I acknowledge the importance of communication and how it effects my daily life. 

Although I will soon be completing my undergraduate degree in Communication and Media Studies, I look forward to attending graduate school in order to focus my studies on the areas of communication that I find most intriguing. Thus far, I have become extremely interested in three main areas of communication: 
         
       communication theory
       interpersonal communication
       organizational communication 

Each one of these concentrations, although similar, offer different explanations on how and why people communicate.  When I select the graduate program that I would like to go into, I would like to further my knowledge in one or more of these areas.
