When did you attend MTSU and what did you study?

BS Recording Industry '02. In Cummings, Beasley, and Gracie. Lived off campus senior year.
Realized Jr year I didn't want my major (thanks to Legal Problems of the Recording Industry class) but was young and dumb and wanted out of school so I focused on my Business Admin Minor.

One of my biggest regrets in life is not staying one more year to graduate in Entrepreneurship.
A bunch of my buddies stayed in Cummings

The recording industry program is fantastic
It is. But after the project in that class of writing a recording contract and seeing someone like Garth Brooks made less than $0.20 per CD sold, I couldn't stand it. Didn't want to produce or be an exec for major labels, but to survive on your own you had to have a name for yourself. To make that you had to work for the labels. I refused.

Nowadays 20yrs later it is much different. An artist can be independent and make it. Market on socials, YouTube, etc. And a producer can work with them. Still don't regret my business focus though. I've been an entrepreneur and I love what I do now, just wish my degree matched with it more.

Lesson learned.
