If you survey each student on college campuses across the country, you'll find one thing that they all have in common: a love of Girl Scout cookies. But, if you think about it a little more you'll find that the types of students on campus are similar to our favorite cookies.
Thin-Mints: The Athletes
Thin Mints are the thinnest people on campus. They are the athletes we love to cheer them on and to be around. We spend money on them every year because we can’t get enough buying their jerseys, going to their games and making sure that we never wash the one shirt of ours they touched. We get excited when we see them out in public because we know that it is going to be a while until we can see them again.
Samoas: The Overachievers
Samoas are the people that magically have it all figured out. While the rest of us are struggling to get our coconut to stick to our cookies, they poured chocolate over it so it would all stick together. When you ask a Samoa if they have a minute they say “of course.” But they only mean a minute, because they have to dash off to run a meeting, see their boss or finish their 10 page paper that is due tomorrow -- that they haven’t started yet, but will still get an A on.
Tagalongs: The Greeks
You’ll always find a Tag-a-long in a large group of Greeks. They always talk about their sorority sisters or their frat brothers. Their Facebook profile picture is always a different flyer for a philanthropy event that their sorority or fraternity is holding. Tag-a-longs are all about Greek life and are decked out in their colored frockets and letters on their jackets. They might have a chocolate coating on the outside but their inside is pure Greek-loving peanut butter.
Trefoils: The Bookworms
Trefoils have a very simple purpose in life which is to get straight A’s. They are always in the library or in the MLC and are dedicated to their education. They are the ones that get A's in their Organic Chemistry classes when everyone else is struggling to maintain their D’s. Trefoils are the students who will be accepted by Harvard Law School and Duke Medical School. There isn’t much to them other than their insane drive to get straight A’s.
Savannah Smiles: The Transfer Student
Savannah Smiles are relatively new on campus. They transferred recently and don’t know many people but they are always smiling and trying to meet new people. They try to get involved in as many organizations as possible and get their face out there. After they're comfortable with the scene, they will be like the rest of the cookies.
Do-Si-Dos: The Party Animals
Do-si-dos are the party animals on campus. They are always downtown and it seems like they never do homework. They drink more than an entire AA group. They don’t seem to care about their grades and they aren’t on scholarship so their GPA's don’t matter to them. Do-si-dos have that "C’s get Degrees" mentality.
