Thanks Khal, I find you a nice car and treat you right, and you still ditch me. That's it, I'm gonna see other people now (hopefully more girls). LOL
Ah the minor. Take small bits at a time, or that is at least what I wished I would have done. Interject some fun into the boring grind of gen ed classes. As I said, the upper division classes and the classes for minors tend to be more fun, so if you can throw in a great class every semester and get your minor, then go for it. I would start working on it in the begining of your second year, as by that time you will have a taste of a lot of different classes, and you'll know what you want to minor in. Dont freak yourself out about which one to pick, as you have plenty of time, and can take a lot of classes. You need 12 credits of open electives, so you might find you dont like you minor, but then you have fulfilled the open elective credit.
I am working on my safety minor, which I find fascinating. I recomend it, as you look at accidents (slighty morbid though), human factor, aircraft design failures, flight training methods, and CRM. Great course of study. You know the great thing though? I could stop now, work on another, and have all of my open elective stuff done. (actually it is done, but that's another matter)
Take classes that look interesting, and make sure to take one interesting class every semester. I have had semseters where I hate all of my classes, and those drag on. Working on my minor and being in upper division classes, semesters fly by. I wish I would have spread out the fun a bit more.
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. Khal, RiddlePilot, and are all within 20' of eachother right now (cant get Khal out of the house, and RiddlePilot is on his way to becoming a permanent resident of the house), as are 2 other ERAU students, so there is a fair amount of student knowledge here.
Have a good one, and trust me, you'll enjoy ERAU.
