Ariele's # 5 Blog- Link to Major

Throughout class we have talked about many things that made me wonder how me and my career will be affected.  Being a communications major I will be interacting with people all around the world which makes me wonder if I know enough about the Middle East and their struggle to be able to work with them if I ever have to.  An observation that I made from this class that links ideas and/or questions to my major is how women are treated in the Middle East.  Many of the countries allow their women to be in the business world, while some still do not.  The questions that arise for me and my major are as follows:

1. If I went to the Middle East would I be looked at negatively or differently being a women in the work force?

2. Would I have to wear the veil like most women do in the Middle East?

3. What kind of issues would I be dealing with if I ever traveled to the Middle East for work considering my major is so broad.

Many of the movies we watched show women in a bad light so it frightens me, being a woman myself as to how the Middle East view women in America as well as in other regions.
