The 10 Best Majors For Slytherins

Being a Slytherin in modern society puts a major stigma against anything you might want to do. So here are 10 majors that will take you on very Slytherin life paths, without (much) of an evil stigma.

Business

Its part of the nature of Slytherins to want to be in charge of powerful things and what better way to do that than to be the CEO of a large company?

Chemistry

Going straight up book for this one. Potions = Chemistry

Political Science

Politics is right up the average Slytherin's alley. Combining the ability to advance and standing for a belief system creates an irresistible combination for any power hungry person.

Communications

Communications can lead to a lot of diverse things, but mainly jobs in the media. Working in the media is great because it is an easy way to be able to twist an agenda to point out or ignore certain plots. Very Slytherin.

Law

Being able to use the law for one's own gain is probably one of the most Slytherin things I can think of. No matter what a Slytherin does, they always come out on top.

Sociology

Sociology is the study of how people act in groups. A cunning Slytherin will know that group mentality is important to knowing how to control people.

History

One of the core things about Slytherins is that they don't want to make the same mistakes twice. And how does one learn from their mistakes? By studying History. A history major could easily lead to teaching history which is a great way to shape new minds into believing something.

Theatre

A Slytherin always needs to be ready to act and lie at a moments notice. Whether it's getting a lead or covering up a plot, the theater is the place to be.

Physics

Just imagine being so devoted to doing just one thing that most people say is impossible, like wanting to fly. The only way to accomplish this goal would be to learn every about the supposed "reasons" you can't and changing them. Changing the laws of physics quite ambitious.

Psychology

To know how a person thinks and be able to predict it can and will lead to a better working knowledge of said person. Of course, all knowledge gained should only be used for the greater good.


Naturally, anyone who considers themselves a Slytherin probably already has some indication of what they want. Even if it is as broad as 'nothing with blood', like it is for me. And of course, this is by no means a comprehensive list. I'm sure that any Slytherin has the ability to make any major suit their needs.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
