Crops and soils is one major part of agriculture, and without it we would not be able to survive. Not only that, but there would be no other way to raise the other aspects of agriculture and that is animal agriculture. When writing posts for the blog a lot of the aspects looked covered a vast array of different agriculture, while at the same time bringing it together with the other majors in the group. The biggest aspect that all fields touch on is communication along with serving people. Communication in agriculture is very important and needs to be taken seriously. Some things in agriculture tend to be difficult topics and many people take words out of context or misinterpret it. The prompt post #10 touches more on at least one misinterpretation in the industry specifically animal agriculture. From the post, “Why did I Choose My Field”, you will see why animal agriculture is important to this blog along with those who are a part of it. This is an area that has shaped so many individuals into who they are and an area that brings out qualities in people to the fullest extent. Readers should take from this a better understanding of agriculture and that not all the misconceptions are true. Addressed is one misconception in “Grain fed vs. Grass fed”. This helps people understand that just because it is grass fed it does not mean it has more health benefits than grain fed, more so they both provide different positives for the human body. Finally, in these posts the reader should understand just because you are in agriculture does not mean you are working on a farm. In fact, there is so much to agriculture and you can see more of this explained when you read “Your major is what?”. 
Not only does agriculture play a huge role in serving humanity but criminal justice and psychology does as well. Apart of being a psychology major it deals with a wide variety of people and can treat many kinds of problems. I want to pursue in the career of becoming a psychologist. Many people go see a psychologist because they feel depressed, angry, pain, stressed, and many other issues. Psychologist can help cope with their issues and help them find a resolution to some of their issues. Also as a criminal justice major it would be our job to keep not only the community safe but as the society as a whole. We want to seek justice for those who have been a victim of a crime. When combining the two majors together they both serve in today’s society together, Psychology serves by helping diagnose and treat their problems that they struggle with. Also this particular major has its own subfields that each serve their own purpose and have their own goals. Most of us have recognized the importance of the Criminal Justice System are the laws that are in our society. There are laws in society that have been created to have a safe environment for everyone and make everyone feel secure through their daily lives. Another crucial part dealing with both Psychology and Criminal Justice is communication. Communication in a Psychology major allows you to understand what others say, sign, or write. For most of us, the purpose of verbal communication is to get your message across to others clearly. If communication is not verbally communicated it can be an error and with messages often being misinterpreted. When dealing with a Criminal Justice major it’s very important communicate effectively, because the system relies on important information that comes from reliable sources. Loss of information through bad communication can be costly and time wasting.
Agriculture and psychology are fields that play huge roles in serving humanity by providing basic necessity in the forms of food and social and emotional stability. Someone involved in Sustainable Parks, Recreation, and Tourism has a unique role in serving humanity as well. This role revolves around helping people appreciate and care for the environment and communities. An important component of this is that it requires good communication and the cooperation of people. The sustainability part of this role is about caring for the environment and planet for future generations. Issues like Global Climate Change are problems we need to worry about for the sake of humanity (click here to view our blog post on Global Climate Change http://wraaejm.blogspot.com/2016/02/global-climate-change-what-is-it-what.html). In order to help the planet, the cooperation and flexibility of all of humanity is necessary. The other component of Sustainable Parks, Recreation, and Tourism that provides a service to humanity is the recreation portion. Forms of recreation with parks, community centers, camps etc. build community and relationships among people. Things like the National Parks and summer camp may not always seem necessary, but they bring joy and fulfillment to peoples’ lives. In the blog post, “The National Park Service”, the whole purpose of the parks is described as being there for the sake of the general public. (Click here to read more about the National Parks: http://wraaejm.blogspot.com/2016/02/the-national-park-service.html) Recreation is something that people use for vacation, stress relief, and time with family and community members. In order for things like the National Parks or any community park to exist though, the cooperation and approval of people is essential. This is why someone working in sustainable, parks, recreation, and tourism needs to have a good relationship with people, in particular with the general public. Its purpose in helping humanity requires many of the same skills of working with people and caring for others as psychology and agriculture.With a blog centered around four different majors scattered all across the board, we thought it might be difficult to find a joining topic, relating the majors to each other. However, this task proved to be less difficult than expected. With a clear motive for serving society, we had found what these majors had in common. Although each may take a different route to get there, emphasizing on things like communication skills, public relations, community cooperation, or even something as simple as hard work, the end result always looks the same. Sharing this strong drive to serve our society today, and that of generations to come, these professions connect through the most important thing a career holds: its purpose.
