What I found surprising about the FCS education program at EKU was the variety of course work you get to take. As a Family and Consumer Sciences teacher you are required to be knowledgeable in many topics including child development, foods and nutrition, hospitality and tourism, and fashion and interior design. I was worried that I would not have a solid understanding of each area. However, through the program at EKU I became very well rounded. Earning a bachelors degree in family and consumer sciences has allowed me to work at my dream job. I love getting to do what I love everyday.
