Accounting major with minors in Economics and Finance

My name is George F.K. Haddad, and I am an Accounting major with minors in Economics and Finance. I've been in numerous programs at WVU, as I started off in computer science but switched to a double major in Economics and Mathematics. Finally, I chose Accounting after taking courses during my sophomore year and absolutely loving the work!
The reason that I chose to attend WVU was the connection that it had with the state. My father immigrated from Lebanon to this state, and my mom's family has been here for generations. I felt that at WVU, I had ample opportunity to learn more about my myself and the field that I chose to study. The two years that I've spent here so far have been full of experiences that have transformed me into the person that I am, and I believe that these next years will have more to come. My advice to the freshman class is hone in on what you want from your college experience and dig your heels in. Work hard, but play harder!
