Matt's advice column

I am seventeen, female, senior in high school. I intend to go to college after high school with a major in elementary ed. I want to be a 2nd grade teacher because I love kids so much, I babysit all the time and I am a teacher for two year olds at my church per request by my pastor's wife. Now, I would like to minor in something completely different so I can keep my options open, I would like to minor in either political science or communications.

My question is, what jobs would I be able to do with a minor of communications? What jobs would I be able to do with a minor of political science?

Thanks!

The way I understand it, a minor is pretty worthless if it's not augmenting your major. It will look nice on your resume but I wouldn't by any means pin your hopes on obtaining a job in the field you choose to minor in based solely off of that minor.
