Colleges and universities are home to a vast variety majors and programs encompassing a range of students; however, each of these majors and programs bears an assumption, a stereotype, or even more so a symbol. These symbols come in all shapes and forms but what can encompass them profoundly and subtly simultaneously is a drink.
You cannot walk onto a college campus without seeing a student with some form of liquid. Thus, bringing these two ideas together, here are the college majors as drinks.
1. Nursing: Black Coffee
It's true. Nursing majors run on coffee. You would be surprised not to see them with cup or mug in hand whether it be from Dunkin', Starbucks, or that sketch coffee vending machine in a classroom building. Coffee keeps these nursing majors going to their clinical, morning lab, or brutal lecture.
2. Education: Chocolate Milk
On the outside the education major seem bland. They fall into the stereotype we had as children believing are teachers were boring just like the dull brown exterior of chocolate milk. Other college students may also believe the education major lacks the amount of work and does not nearly do what anything equivalent to their workloads. But, just like chocolate milk if one looks deeper it is rich. Education majors have a lot to do in terms of lessons and helping children. Education majors as future teachers are sweet just like chocolate milk. And to the chocolate milk that lacks that chocolate-y goodness, these are the teachers that weren't so sweet.
3. Diplomacy: Long Island Tea And Other Island Drinks
They may seem quiet or reserved but do not underestimate the competence of a diplomacy major. Diplomacy majors are secretly stronger than what their peers think just like the power of the classic Long Island Iced Tea. Don't be fooled by their reserved nature as they are powerful in their ideas, skills, and professionalism. Rich in strength like this drink, the diplomacy major possesses information and skills about esoteric topics like international affairs and policy. Not many others are willing to understand these topics but diplomacy majors are.
4. Psychology: Tea
Psychology majors are lovers of deep conversation, calm settings, and analyzing behavior. Thus, psychology majors are representative of this traditional conversational staple. Like tea, psychology comes in all different varieties reflecting the diversity in the field. What is morning brunch or discussion with a relaxing hot cup of tea to relax the mood and inhibitions?
5. Business: Liqueur
At the roots of our economic system and enterprise are the business majors. The cliche is to picture one walking through New York's Financial District on Wall Street in business formal attire. Just like liqueur, they seem fancy on the surface but are not always. Yes, they can be but other times you can find them in business casual attire in your town or at your school using their degree.
6. Journalism: Latte
Such an elegant drink for the day dreamer and thinker that embodies the journalism major. From Chai to Pumpkin Spice, lattes come in all different varieties just like the content of journalists. Lattes provide just the right amount of caffeine and elegance for the journalist in the spotlight who is up and ready around the clock to respond to a breaking story. Lattes also can have an exotic nature reflecting the different setting in which journalists write.
7. Law: Water
Water is the most logical drink there is to quench one's thirst and some could consider it the dullest of drinks to order. Law majors are logical and to the point. They use logical strategies to state their case as they are also well first in the black and white nature of the laws and policies. Water is also symbolic of their famous courtroom setting to counter the sweating and intense nature of a case.
8. Biology: Green Smoothies
Biology majors are studying life from plant life to animal life to the basic structures of life. It isn't uncommon for biology majors to be on a healthcare track so green smoothies and their health nature are more than appropriate to describe them. These majors are full in life in terms of personality and knowledge trying to educate themselves to help life forms and understand them. Green being the color of life supports a biology majors studies just as a smoothie fuels them for hardcore studies and a healthy routine.
