When I graduated with honors from Nansemond River Highschool in 2018, my ceremony was held at ODU&#8217;s Ted Constant Center in Norfolk, VA. It was inevitable that my academic path would eventually lead back to Old Dominion!<\/p>\n<p>At this time in my life, I haven&#8217;t yet decided on the career path I aim to take, though my interests vary from <em>forensic psychology<\/em> to <em>childhood and adolescent counseling<\/em>. During my time as a student, my goal is to explore the multitude of facets in the psychological field to expand my knowledge and identify the most suitable path. In the end, my desire is to have a career that helps others and creates a positive impact in my community.<\/p>\n<p>With each psychology course I have taken, I&#8217;ve walked away at the end of each semester enlightened with a greater understanding of myself and of those I will encounter in every aspect of my life. My interest in taking PSYC 304 follows the same principle: I know that the lessons this course offers will expand that knowledge and improve my character as a whole, rather than simply fulfilling a requirement for a transcript.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-105 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/hough-psyc304\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23029\/2021\/01\/BE13AF9D-4C6A-442E-8FF9-8B8379310448-129x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"129\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/hough-psyc304\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23029\/2021\/01\/BE13AF9D-4C6A-442E-8FF9-8B8379310448-129x300.jpeg 129w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/hough-psyc304\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23029\/2021\/01\/BE13AF9D-4C6A-442E-8FF9-8B8379310448.jpeg 284w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 129px) 100vw, 129px\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>To start, view these quick <a href=\"https:\/\/www.odu.edu\/success\/programs\/eportfolios\/tutorials#tab89=2\">WordPress<\/a> tutorials!
