If 'Parks And Recreation' Characters Had College Majors

Aren't I spot on?

If 'Parks And Recreation' Characters Had College Majors

The characters on the television show, "Parks and Recreation," are diverse. They are talented in all different areas which make them unique. Some are talkers, motivated, act like sociopaths and dreamers. If Leslie Knope and the gang were in college, I believe they would have these majors:

Andy Dywer: Undecided

From shoe-shinning to being an assistant to Leslie's campaign, Andy as done it all. He is just multi-interested— in everything! There is nothing wrong with that. Sometimes it takes a few years or so to find your niche.

Tom Haverford: Business and Marketing


While Tom failed at Entertainment 720, he did build up successful companies: Rent-A-Swag and Tom's Bistro. His creative ideas and motivation make him the perfect business and marketing major.

Ann Perkins: Nursing

Ann is a gentle and kind person and usually soothes Leslie in one of her crazy times. They are great qualities for nurses.

Leslie Knope: Political Science

As an independent, dedicated and hardworking individual, Knope succeeded in her dream of being part of Pawnee's council. Her obsessiveness over the government stands out throughout the series.

Chris Traeger: Exercise Sport Science

You can find Chris always talking about excising or eating healthy. He has only 2.8 percent of body fat due to his excessive exercising and dieting.

Ben Wyatt: Communications

While Ben seems to be a shy guy, he is a great talker— if he gets a word in edgewise with Leslie.

April Ludgate: Psychology

The awkward and strange April fits perfectly as the psychology major. Sometimes you don't understand her ideas or even what she says.

Ron Swanson: Fishery and Forestry

Instead of working for the Parks Department, Ron would rather live in his secluded cabin in the woods by himself—fishing, building things out of wood and enjoying the outdoors. He hates the government—even though he works for it.

"Parks and Rec" entertain you from start to finish. From their crazy adventures to their different personalities, Leslie Knope and the gang work well together. Did you agree with my choices for their majors?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
