Your Chosen Major and its Stereotype

Your Chosen Major and its Stereotype

One of the biggest jokes of college may have to be picking your major. Who's really going to use their major after college anyways..?

The typical Communications major: 

You loooove social media! In it for the likes! Communications majors are always out because they have so much free time, but part of their major includes being social right? So really going out is part of their studies. Being unemployed after graduation isn't a concern, because they always have their "Mrs. Degree" to fall back on.

The "Pre-Med" major:

Well, pre-med isn't actually a major, but at least it makes you sound smart. Credit is awarded to these science nerds though for majoring in something awful like Biology or Bio-Chem-No-one-cares-istry. Their favorite line is, "sorry, I can't, I have lab...." But hey when you're a successful Doctor all those missed Frat Parties will be totally worth it.

Theater Majors:

Because they are all going to make it to Broadway right? These people loooove drama, and being fake...almost as much as they love spending their four years of college learning nothing, but they are destined to be a star so it doesn't matter.

The Brainy Psychology Major:

Loves to listen to other people's problems and looooves pretending they can fix people's issues. Psychology majors are typically weird brain loving people. Don't worry though because if you ever want to be over analyzed they've got it covered!

The "I just want to be a Teacher" Major:

What do you even do in class, play with play-dough? How hard can these classes even be? But on the bright side, I'm sure you have a lot of free time now to go out! You must realllllly love school if you want to spend the rest of your life there receiving nothing much in return.

 The "I'm pre-law" Major:

Again, this isn't a major...but they will probably try to argue it is. These students tend to think they are always correct and superior to everyone else. Acting in-charge is definitely one of their hobbies. Easily recognizable by the nicely dressed guy at the library at 2am, or the Elle Woods wanna-bees. 



International Business Major:

Because they hate America. " Once I graduate, I'm moving to Italy." They dream of casually strolling the streets of their new foreign country with a cappuccino in one hand, and their new foreign soul mate on the other. 

The ever popular - Business Major:

Basically, "I didn't know what to major in so I picked business because it applies to everyone." Just about every Frat Star is a business major, so how hard can it be?

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
