Why 305?

After being asked "Why RTF 305?"I sat and pondered what the exact reason for my decision to take this class was based upon? Was it just to get a credit within my school out side my major? Was it because I heard it was a fun interesting class? Or is it simply because it was one of the only classes left open when it was FINALLY my turn to register for classes? Honestly, I have discovered that I am in this class for none of those reasons. Instead, I came into this class because I am interested to see if I really want to study Advertising. Upon my arrival at UT, I had not the slightest clue as to what field of study I wanted to pursue. After completing ADV 318J with Dr. Murphy in the spring semester, I realized that I was truly interested in advertising and I choose to take it on as my major. Now, I am thinking, if I chose advertising because of one interesting class, then how do I know I won't be interested in another field after completing an equally interesting class? Thus, I am taking this class to see if I could possibly be interested in pursuing a career in radio, television, and film. I hope to learn the basics of what media studies entails, if I could thrive in this field, and if I could potentially take on RTF as my major.
