Animal Science majors are just like every other college student... we procrastinate. We don't always love every science course we take. On campus we tend to gravitate towards Kildee.
There's many more items we can relate to... but here are 14 that I find the most relatable as an Animal Science Major.
1. Procrastination is key.
Writing a paper? Presentation due? If tomorrow is not the due date, then today is not the do day.
2. We do not all want to be veterinarians.
I cannot tell you what is wrong with your dog.
3. Call classes by numbers, not names.
BBMB 221, AnS 225, Micro 201, Bio 212.
4. How you feel about all of the science courses.
Some intro biology and chemistry is understandable. But to add biochemistry... why?
5. Polo, Sperry, Twisted X, 7s.
You most likely own at least one of these brands... or all of them.
6. Scheduling.
Required class only offered at 8 a.m. The classes you need are closed. Two classes conflict. The one class left you need is only offered in the spring. Scheduling is a stressful time.
7. When people try to argue facts with us.
8. Working on group projects in 124 Kildee.
Don't always get much done, but at least you got together.
9. When you hear that attendance isn't required.
10. Falling behind in a class.
Falling behind in science courses leads to a snowball effect of not being able to get your shit together.
11. You can always retake a class but you can't relive a party.
Not saying I condone this, but how else are you going to make friends in college?
12. Studying happens at Kildee more often than the library.
13. Cramming for AnS 214.
They say you cannot cram a whole semester of information in one night, but we're scientists... so of course we need to test this theory to see if it is true.
14. Walking into Kildee.
Half of the people you see are your friends, the other half are the people you party with... but don't actually know their names.
As an Animal Science major my apartment may be my true home away from home... but Kildee is a place I know that I can go where I'll always see at least one friend.
