"It's never too late to change your major" says Chrissy Davies an Art Education Major with a minor in Photography. Chrissy knows this all too well, as a transfer student from Union County College. Chrissy was fed up and not happy as a business major, so she dropped out of county college to start her own business. That summer, Chrissy worked with the Rainbow Group in Elizabeth, NJ. The Rainbow Group is a program that works with children who come from homes with divorced or lost parents. Coming from a divorced home herself, she was able to relate with these children. That's when Chrissy decided to attend Kean University as a Social Work major.In her first year at Kean University, she took a photography class, which covered her Art general requirement. This class really changed her life. She took a job at the Photo Lab on campus and fell in love with the students of the Art department. This is when Chrissy decided to change her major for the last time. However, her mom would only give her blessing if Chrissy majored in Art Education and minored in Photography. Chrissy is extremely happy with her decision. "Don't be afraid to change your major!" says Chrissy, because if she didn't, she would have never found her place in society.

Chrissy has really changed her outlook with school. She is not only the Secretary of the Fine Arts Student Association (FASA) and an employee of the Photo Lab on campus, but she also arranges displays of her own personal art work. Chrissy just recently had an exhibit "Purpose Realized" in the Little Gallery, located at Vaughn Eames, of her paintings along with the paintings of fellow classmate, Lauren DeMary. And, she's not done. Keep your eye out for a two (2) week exhibit of Chrissy's abstract paintings during the Spring Semester.
