10 Best Majors For Gryffindors

After doing a similar list for Slytherins last week, I decided to use the proceeding 3 weeks for the other houses. So here are, in no particular order, the 10 best majors for Gryffindors.

Criminal Justice

Gryffindors have a very strong need to help people. They also have a very strong sense of right and wrong. Put those two things together and you have the perfect combination for the leader of a police district.

Sports Management

Gryffindors love competition and being in charge.

Education

Taking after Harry, education is just another way to help people. Children have to know things and there have to be teachers for them.

Music

Gryffindors express themselves constantly. And what is more expressive than music?

Art

A good way to channel a Gryffindor's natural temperament is to have an outlet. Art can easily be such an outlet.

Military

Gryffindors tend to like to fight for what they believe in and taking one of the many military programs that colleges have is the best way to do this.

Communications

A boisterous Gryffindor could easily do well in the entertainment industries as a tv personality or a radio host or a game commentator. Communications leads to all these things.

Fashion

Some Gryffindors will want to stay at the top of all the trends and want to start some themselves, by coming up with new and daring ideas.

Cultural Studies/Languages

Gryffindors like to be in the middle and experience things to the fullest. Full immersion into another culture and language is one of the many ways to be in the middle of a great experience.

Medical

Gryffindors love to help the people who need it. Any form of Medicine or Veterinary Major is right up that alley.


Gryffindors are people that are brave and daring yes, but they also just want to help out and leave a mark. By helping less fortunate people, Gryffindors leave their marks on the soul.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

It's easier than you think.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
