What will I learn?

Universities - like all large institutions, including political parties, religious groups, and national governments - are often slow to embrace change, and with good reason: the survival of the institution itself often rests upon the the maintenance of tradition and habit.

It is not surprising, then, that a major like media studies may meet with some suspicion from people who genuinely care about learning, about the integrity of the university, and above all, about the student herself: When there are so many traditional degrees available in fields like English Literature, Sociology, and Philosophy, why spend four years on a major that some people have never even heard of
