What does the man’s father want him to do?

W: You don’t look to be in a very good mood.
M: I just had another argument with my father over my choice of majors. [8A] He says that if I don’t change to something more practical than what I’m studying now, I’ll be on my own as far as tuition is concerned.
W: [9C]I should have known it was something like that. It sounds like it’s pretty serious this time.
M: Without his support, there’s no way I’ll be able to stay here.
W: Maybe you should consider your options a little more carefully.
M: I don’t see that I have that many to consider.
W: Look, I don’t want to make things worse between you and your father, but I do think you have other choices.
M: That’s what I was hoping. I’m all ears.
W: First of all, there are scholarships. There’s even an office right here on campus devoted to helping you find and apply for them.
M: I know. I’ve already been there, but I really came over here to find out if you had any other ideas.
W: Of course. Why not think about doing a double major?
M: A double major?
W: Sure. You could satisfy your father and yourself.
M: I see what you’re getting at. I could keep my present major and add something like, well…like business, for example to keep my father happy.
W: That’s what I was thinking. Of course, [10A] it’ll cost more, increase your course load considerably and it might take you an extra term or two to graduate. You certainly won’t be able to hold a job — even a part-time one — while you’re doing a double major; not unless you’re willing to stay in school quite a while longer.
M: But it seems to be the best way. Thanks a lot.
