ABC's hit series Scandal has made its way to many college students' tv screens. Olivia Pope's sassy attitude inspires many to show that level of confidence in their work. It is easy for a college student to relate to certain aspects of her life; love triangles, little white lies, and her great love of wine are just a few. Aside from these traits and scenarios, a lot of Pope's dialogue can also be heard coming from a college student.
