Organizational Leadership Major

Organizational Leadership Major - Cassidy Duncan

What is your occupation?
Full time student and also work part time.

What is your college major?
Organizational Leadership with an emphasis in Public Administration.

How did you come about choosing this major?
I was looking for something that I enjoyed doing and wanted to change majors.

What career path do you want to take upon graduation?
Where ever the Lord sends my fiancé and I for him to go to dental school (he will be my husband by this point), is where I’ll look for a job. I’m hoping to work for a great organization using my degree.

Why eMajor?
Online classes work best for me. You are in control of when you do you work, but also know that you have to be organized and disciplined to do your work and get it turned in on time.

Who is the biggest inspiration for your education?
My parents are my biggest inspiration. They told me when I was little,” the sky's the limit.” I have had that mind-set all my life. They support me and encourage me all the time.

What is something cool you've learned this semester in eMajor?
That online classes actually are interesting and that they can be fun and interesting.

What three words would you use to describe one of your online instructors?
Helpful, understanding, and challenging

Where is your favorite place to visit in the USA?
The beach. I love to feel the sand between my toes and soak up the sun!

What kind of mood are you in right now, and why?
I’m in a good mood. A little stressed with finals and getting prepared for my wedding on December 15^th. But very relieved that I made it and it’s almost over. J

What is your favorite study spot?
I’d say the library. I get more done there than I do at home. I find everything to do, but study when I’m home.

What is something your online classmates don't know about you?
There is so much that my online classmates don’t know. You’re never around them, so there is not too much communication unless you are in a group with them.

Is there anything else you would like to share about yourself?
Not that I can think of.

Kristian Kirkland eMajor '20 Graduate Feature Columbus State University Bachelor of Science in Nursing In the last few months, Kristian Kirkland, a Columbus State University RN-BSN 2020 graduate from the eMajor program, quickly found himself tackling unprecedented challenges and conducting virus tests daily. In October 2019, Kirkland accepted a position at the Coffee County Health Department as a public health registered nurse under the Southeast Health District in Waycross, Georgia, which services over 16 counties. Worldwide, healthcare professionals have stepped up by answering the call to serve and fight the Coronavirus pandemic with limited resources and time to prepare. “My main priority is COVID-19 right now,'' said Kirkland. “When I’m out in the field, I am swabbing patients that come for testing, which is my way of trying to do good in the world.” He had no idea that his responsibilities would significantly increase and shift as soon as they did.

eMajor Gave Me a Second Chance: One Student’s Journey to Earning Her Bachelor’s

After taking a break from college, Saucony Hunt learned about affordable, online degrees through the University System of Georgia’s eMajor program. Hunt was 12 years into her career when she became increasingly aware that she needed to complete a bachelor’s degree to continue to advance. Hunt initially enrolled in college right after high school, but reflects that she was “not prepared or focused enough to complete a degree at that time.” While she has no regrets about joining the workforce, she began looking for educational opportunities when she approached the midpoint of her career. Now she’s enrolled at East Georgia State College completing her degree in Organizational Leadership fully online through the USG eMajor Program , This program offers a flexible route that allows students in many career paths to tailor their learning and possibly receive credit for demonstration of learning achieved during past work or military experiences. What drew Saucony to eMajor was the unparallel...

University System of Georgia eCampus Offers Free Online Courses

Students can now take more than a dozen online non-credit college courses at no charge. While most students who take FreeCampus courses already attend USG colleges and universities, the courses are open to anyone. These self-paced courses are also asynchronous with traditional graded assessments. After successfully completing a course online, a student can receive a certificate for earning a grade of 75 percent or higher. There is no penalty for not completing a course. With a focus on courses that are sometimes a barrier to college completion, the USG FreeCampus program allows students to better prepare themselves for credit-bearing courses. For example, a dual-enrolled high school student can take an English composition course to hone his or her writing skills before taking the for-credit version at a College or University. An adult learner who is returning to college after years away can brush up on math, increasing both confidence and future academic performance. USG eCampus also ...
