If College Majors Were Board Games

Nursing students would definitely be 'Operation'

The whole reason that we have defined our major in college is because we've determined that we're good at something. For example, nursing students would probably be great at Operation because, well, they'll be doing surgeries quite a bit in their job. What game represents your major?

1. Accounting

Monopoly is such a good fit for accountants. The whole game centers around balancing your money and purchasing as many assets as possible while also taking into account your liabilities.

2. Criminal Justice

How could Clue not represent a CJ major? You're investigating a murder. It's just prep work for the real deal, really.

3. English

With Scrabble, you have to make words using only the letters you're given. English majors are all about using words that no one has heard before, so of course this game would be perfect for them.

4. Psychology

Chess is all about getting into your opponents head to figure out their next move. Psychologists have to do the same thing to better understand their clients to help them.

5. Art

Pictionary is literally drawing things and having people guess what it is. Of course someone who's majoring in something that can deal with art would be great at a game like Pictionary.

6. Political Science

Cards Against Humanity is perfect for poli sci majors because 1) a lot of the cards have to do with political standpoints and history, and 2) they have to argue why their card is the best fit. It's basically their job to argue what to do.

7. Communications / Public Relations

Telephone is the obvious fit for communications/public relations majors. The whole premise of the game is to communicate, after all.

8. Education

Trivial Pursuit is the ultimate knowledge game, so of course education majors would be a great fit for this game.

9. Theatre

CHARADES. They have to act out a word or idea in order to win the game.

10. Dance


Twister is all about having the moves, which dancers obviously have.

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.
