6 Types of People in College

Pretty sure we all can't stand each other

6 Types of People in College

After my analysis, I conclude that 4/6 types of people listed below actually have lives.

1. Sorority Girls

On the outside, they may look well put-together but on the inside, these girls will be puking their guts out every other weekend. They're also known as multi-taskers, so give them credit for balancing sorority events and school.

2. Athletes

Most of them are almost 7ft. tall giants that respectfully choose to sit at the back of the class to prevent their fellow students from craning their necks to see the notes on the screen.

3. Country boys aka rednecks

These guys shoot deer with rifles and fish for tarpon and sailfish during all their breaks and vacations. Also big fans of country music. Some wants America to be great again but others just simply coexist and ride tractors.

4. Suits

If you see them walking around grounds, there's an 85% chance they're in the commerce school. And the reason they wear suits everyday is to prove their status as prestigious business students. Not that I'm complaining.

5. Nerds

Unlike in the media, nowadays some nerds are well-disguised; their clothing and behavior no longer gives away the insightful, intelligent thoughts swirling around in their mind or their insecurities of being outcasts.

6. Jokers

You can't take anything seriously and everyday is April Fools Day to you. Deep down you're insecure about yourself and you try to hide the fact that you're a softie.


Not seeing yourself in any of these groups is absolutely okay; technically, no one can 100% identify himself/herself with one "type of person" throughout college. However, congratulations if you do identify with one of the above "characters."

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.

"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.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies.
