In the small town of Hawkins, Indiana, in the year 1983, nothing strange, nor unfortunate ever occurred. Then everything changed drastically. It makes me happy to imagine my world and the world of Stranger Things colliding. If you enjoy watching Stranger Things, like me, you'll enjoy reading what Stranger Things characters would be if they were college majors:
1. Eleven (EL) - Psychology
Mind over matter... or eggos over everything. With her abilities, there is not another major on this planet that would coincide with her psychokinetic abilities. She is constantly trying to figure out how the mind works and always asks questions to figuring out how people think and their relationships with others. She has a lot of psychological issues or really just daddy issues, same thing really.
2. Dustin Henderson - Communications
Communications only works for a specific type of a person- one who isn't afraid to speak their mind regardless of the situation. From hitting on Mike's sister to fighting demogorgons, Dustin doesn't care, he will still tell you how he feels.
3. Mike Wheeler - Biology with subfocus of Zoology
He is the one who wants to know what they are up against like the person who wants to know every scientific fish name in the sea. We only like these kind of people because they are super smart and can help us cheat on an exam but we also hate them because they are know-it-alls.
4. Jim Hopper - Criminal Justice
From smoking 12 packs of cigarettes a day to having random librarians shacking at his apartment, you would find him fighting evil.. or fighting the hangover from the night before. This is usually the person with the traits of being brave and courageous. They make conscious based decisions and know what’s right from wrong (most of the time). You’ll rarely catch these guys getting into trouble.
5. Joyce Byers - Math
If anyone in this world can learn math by using Christmas lights, its Joyce Byers. Just follow the flickering lights and you'll find your answer or just use mathway.
6. Lucas Sinclair - Business
Lucas is low-key the leader of the group. When he comes in wearing that bandana and black eye paint, you know he means business. He is the one everyone listens to when something bad is about to happen. Cunning and witty, Lucas, like most business majors, is just trying to climb the ranks.
7. Nancy Wheeler - Chemistry
The goody two shoes, doesn't get in trouble, very smart kind of person. Nancy will go down in history as the smartest woman in the world but her social life will suck.
8. Jonathan Byers - Photography
Jonathan loves his camera more than anything, its his world, his rock and his life. He captures the greatest pictures and sometimes can get in trouble doing that. Watch out for your friendly neighborhood stalker, he'll be watching. Come back and check his fire mix tape next year, “Dead Beat Dads”.
9. Will Byers - Music Education
At his darkest moments, Will would always be singing. It was his way of staying calm and focusing on the good. Music has a lot of power to get you through the bad, every music major should understand that.
10. Steve Harrington - Sports Management
I'm telling ya, Steve Harrington is the new Babe Ruth, just watch. If he isn't bashing a demogorgon or a demodog's brains in, he is teaching MLB players how to swing like a real man. This is the all out sports guy, it’s all about baseball this and football that. One of their biggest goals is more than likely coaching for a team. This is usually the guy you find on the football field with a big ole dip in his mouth with his arms crossed. He is usually known as the dad in the group or babysitter, take your pick.
11. Maxine "Max" Mayfield - Game Design
After being the best gamer in the world, you would think she would want a challenge, don't ya think? Nothing can stop her, not even Dustin's high score on Dig Dug. These are the people that constantly play video games. Always trying to be the best at what they do. If you hit them up their excuse is their doing homework but you know they lying.
12. Bob Newby - Human Development and Family Studies
Bob Newby, the man with the plan, the un-song superhero, you will be missed. These are the type of people who genially care about you and your safety. They are usually way to nice and its really creepy but they mean no harm. They are the type that doesn't care if their in your personal space or not, they just want to talk even if you're only 2 inches apart.
13. Billy Hargrove - Drop Out
This is your drop out, the "I am too cool for school" type of person. They think they are so hot that their shit don't stink. You'll more than likely find these type of people at your local bar or staring into a mirror for 2 hours straight.
