8 Peanuts Characters You Meet in College

You've met them, you just didn't know you read their character in a comic strip once, too.

Now, this isn't a normal listicle that involves characters from your favorite philosophical comic strip centered around elementary school children. While these characterizations are based on the original characters, they're also adapted from my experiences with people I know and I find jazzy and whatnot. Cue that one song.



1. Lucy

Lucy is that pushy, but friendly person you're always able to have a good conversation with, whether they're belittling you or not. Lucy wants to get into the nitty gritty of any subject but if she gets uncomfortable or feels she shared too much, it's back to biting sarcasm and pulling footballs from under your poor, unassuming feet.

2. Linus

Linus is the philosophical one you can never really understand. He speaks in lofty verse that really hasn't been applied in conversation for maybe one hundred years. Also, bonus points if they're considering a divinity major.

3. Sally

Sally is the ditzy friend of yours who is unsure of her major and just about every thing else. She's smart, but not applying herself. She's passionate about a few issues that you don't know much about, and you don't think she does either.

4. Schroeder

The music major who for some reason, unbeknownst to you, rakes in the ladies or guys. They've always got a crowd, but you know them better than most, and they know music better than most. You always enjoy seeing others try to impress them with having heard the Nutcracker all the way through, and then their responding with the most obscure thing from that composer.

5. The Little Redheaded Girl

This is the girl/guy you've had one class with and can't get out of your brain. You like them, but you don't want to scare them away. They're nice from what you know, but you want to know more, but don't have the courage to ask them out.

6. Franklin

The arts major who isn't crazy. This is the most level-headed, smart person you know. You met them once and every time you've talked to them since, you've had some crazy deep conversation about god or religion or Nietzsche or Kafka or something of the sort. They've got your back when everyone else has gone out to party.

7. Pig Pen

The history major who isn't organized. At all. They know so much information about Mesopotamia that you've never even heard of. They're a slob, you dread going to their dorm room because you've been there once and think you saw a mouse crawl across the floor. So, you asked, and they told you that it's name was Gerald.

8. Charlie Brown

The kid who always has something go wrong through no fault of their own. They got their second ticket last week and this week they tried to pay it online and this week they found out that their identity was stolen because the website was fake and now their license has been taken because they didn't pay the ticket. But somehow they got a scholarship to your college.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
