10 Ways To Decorate Your Graduation Cap Based On Your Specific Major

Graduation is the moment you thought would never come. After years of papers and late nights, your work has finally paid off. There's just one last assignment left to complete before you walk: graduation cap decorating ideas.

Decorating graduation caps is a school tradition for students to show their true colors as they wait for the beginning of their future. Some are inspirational and others humorous, but always unique to who they are. Put on your thinking caps for old times' sake and find inspiration from these 10 college major themed graduation caps.

1. Arts and Humanities.

Just the kind of daring introspective you need after graduation. T.S. Eliot was a modernist after all, so his ways with words spoke to a future unknown waiting to be explored and defined. Life is a dare, now go tell the truth.

2. Mathematics.

Math usually stands for Mental Abuse To Humans, but not all math is bad. It gives us buildings, computers, directions, everything we love to have. The equation is fairly simple: love + love = more love. There's no problem you can't solve.

3. Athletics.

Whether you're in a game or training for the next one, you know there's nothing like keeping a competitive edge. Win or lose, you remember the most important person you'll ever have to compete with is yourself.

4. Health Sciences.

Staying healthy and 100 percent is hard work; maintaining your well-being is like running your own factory every day. You're in the profession of selflessness, but don't forget to treat yourself once in a while.

5. Engineering.

You build the world we see in different ways. Without the stability and support of your structures, there's no way we could reach new heights. Scrape the sky, sky scrapers!

6. Business, Economics, and Finance.

Financial responsibility is one of your top priorities, but you don't let it rule who you are. Work hard and the money will follow.

7. Psychology.

Thinking outside the box is how you got here in the first place. If there was a cat to skin, you'd find more than one way to do it. If you like cats, you could condition some dogs with a bowl and a bell instead.

8. Biology.

Where there's motion, there's life and you're moving towards your fullest potential. Stay grounded and look forward to where you're going.

9. Sociology.

Someone has to keep the social order in balance. Crime, law, justice, political science, whatever the behavior and communication, you can correct and reform the bad habits today to create the good and better habits tomorrow.

10. Education.

You never truly graduate. You're a student for a lifetime, always learning with each new day. You want to give back the gift of learning to others and you realize the unobserved life is a life worth teaching.


Graduation marks your transition into the rest of your life and with these graduation cap decorating ideas, you'll make your mark, get set, and go. Congratulations, here's to your future!

Before you go, have another graduation cap for the road:

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
