the case of major problems
read the case and then answer the questions that follow.
as chen lee began his junior year, he still was unsure which major to choose. he had come to college as an \undeclared major\ and that was still his official designation—though he thought \clueless major\ would be a more accurate label.
chen had thought seriously about several possibilities, including communications and marketing, but none seemed to offer just what he was looking for. part of the trouble was, of course, that he really didnt know what he was looking for. in fact, he was a lot clearer about what he didnt want to major in than what he did want to major in.
the clock was ticking away, and he felt lost. his parents offered many suggestions, but that just seemed to increase the pressure. and now he was getting warnings from the school that he had to make a decision.
what seems to be chens main problem in coming to grips with the choice of a major?
Chen Lee is a junior still undecided on a major. He lacks clarity on his desires (more sure of what he doesn't want). External pressures (parents, school warnings) add to his confusion.
