    Triple majors
continued from page 1A
While being a full-time student,
Flores has juggled her coursework
with a part-time tutoring job and
weekend visits to her husband in
Salem. She said she chose this de
gree combination because her hus
band is a Spanish speaker, and she
thinks the combination of two lan
guages and linguistics — the study
of languages — will help her reach
her goal of being an English as a
second language teacher to adults.
Despite the challenge of taking
on an extra major or two, some ad
visers recommend that path for stu
dents interested in several related
fields and who are willing to spend
a little extra time in the classrooms.
“It's definitely a heavy load as a
student,” Flores’ Spanish adviser
Luis Verano said. “But I recom
mend to consider it if topics are in
terrelated.”
He found most of the triple majors
he encounters are already aware of
their requirements, and just have to
get used to being busy and staying
on top of their classwork.
For students uncertain of what ca
reer venue to pursue, Flores suggests
they attend a school with lots of mul
ticultural options and take a variety of
classes until they find the perfect fit.
“When you find something you
like, study it,” she said.
Flores isn’t done with school yet.
Next, she plans to earn her master’s
degree in linguistics from Portland
State University.
For her, the biggest hurdle to
jump in her college career has
been trying to understand teach
ers' expectations.
"It's sometimes just not clear
what they're looking for," she said.
Although Flores said her father
and husband were instrumental in
keeping her going, she said her real
spark to reach her goal had to come
from within.
