I'm an art education major and the cool thing about college is scheduling your own classes. You have a wide range of courses that you can take that will count for once of you credits to fit your major.

I take a lot of art studios but right now I'm trying new courses that make me consider other alternatives.

You brought up your interest in history and some courses I'm taking might be something that you'd enjoy.

1. Anthropology. This is such an awesome course because you travel around the world, learn the history of culture, linguistics (different languages), ethnic food, ancient studies and subjects. As an art major I was very suprised at how much I enjoyed the course. I actually considered minoring in it.

2. Art history. You study the history of arts and artists. Maybe this isn't really your thing. But it's always good to have the course on your record being a history major!

3. Historical/Political Events. You write about events that have a historal background. You might enjoy it because it offers your interests of history and writing.

4. History education. Maybe you want to consider teaching history because you're that passionate about it. Or you could become a professor and basically become your own boss.

5. Editor for a historal magazine? This pretty much explains itself.

Those are a couple ideas. I'd be more help if I had my program of studies at hand. Haha! But don't worry too much. You still have time and it's very good to be open minded about all courses.
