If The Cast of Parks & Rec Attended Texas Universities

The Odyssey Online

Leslie Knope - University of North Texas (UNT)

Lets face it Leslie is as liberal as they come so what better place than the most liberal university in Texas, UNT. The North Texas Mean and Green was the perfect fit for her!

Major: Political Science

Ron Swanson - Texas Tech University

Ron would thrive out in West Texas. There isn't much Ron cares about other than drinking scotch and his wood working thus Tech is just where he belongs. Wreck 'em!

Major: History

April Ludgate - Sam Houston State University (SHSU)

April loves to joke about death and murder so of course SHSU was the perfect fit for her! They have one of the top Criminal Justice Programs in the state and having a prison right by campus was definitely a big perk! Go Bearkats!

Major: Criminal Justice

Andy Dwyer - Baylor University

Andy is a true team player. He is passionate and is always there to cheer you up. For the most part he is like most Baylor Students and is as sweet as can be but he does have the occasional slip up. Sic'em Bears!

Major: Undecided

Tom Haverford - Texas State University (TXST)

"You gotta work a little so you can ball a lot" - Tom

Texas State was the perfect pick from Tom. He has learned the perfect balance between hitting the books and hitting the bars. Tom is also able to make frequent trips to the outlet malls where he can "treat yo self".

Major: Business Administration

Jerry Gerguch - Blinn College

For the longest time people thought that Jerry had a college degree...it turns out he just went to Blinn for two years and was a true Aggie at heart. You had us fooled. Fightin' Aggie Class of ...

Major: Hospitality

Donna Meagle - Southern Methodist University (SMU)

Going along with the "treat yo self" mentality, SMU was a great fit for Donna. SMU's beautiful campus and easy access to high end shopping made for a wonderful four years.

Major: Fashion Merchandising

Ann Perkins - Stephen F. Austin State University (SFA)

Ann loved spending the best four years of her life in Deep East Texas. Her laid back personality is a perfect match for the atmosphere at SFA. She spent most of her time hitting the books but still worked in some time to let lose! Axe'em Jacks!

Major: Nursing

Ben Wyatt - University of Texas at Austin (UT)

Ben has a big brain and an awkward personality so UT is definitely the best pick for him. He wanted to leave his past life as mayor behind and make a new name for himself at the largest university in Texas. See ya later Ice Town, Hook'em!

Major: Accounting

Chris Traeger - Texas A&M University

Chris is a true Aggie if there ever was one, he's definitely one smart cookie. He is overly passionate about his university and jump at any opportunity to bring it up in conversation. Gig'em!

Major: Exercise Science

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

Or at least try to do.

University of Tennessee at Chattanooga

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.

The 14 Stages Of The Last Week Of Class

You need sleep, but also have 13 things due in the span of 4 days.

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.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
