Mandy Moore and Milo Ventimiglia star in NBC's latest hit show "This Is Us". The show documents a unique family's struggles and laughs over the course of a few decades. Here are the Boston University Schools as characters from "This Is Us!"

1. SED: Jack Pearson

A hard worker who is good with kids, Jack is a true family man at heart. He frequently makes sacrifices for the greater good of his family. Much like SED students, Jack accepts his children for who they are and believes in the importance of diversity.

2. SHA: Toby Damon

Toby's sense of humor immediately makes people feel comfortable. SHA students aim to create a welcoming atmosphere where people can rest and enjoy a nice meal. Toby also loves to eat, so SHA foodies rejoice.

3. CFA: William Hil

Young at heart, William is musically oriented and plays the piano with ease. He is a skilled songwriter and poet. William has made some mistakes but he is a hard worker who only gets smarter with age.

4. CGS: Kevin Pearson

An actor in a comedic sitcom called "The Manny," Kevin moves to New York city to audition for a broadway show in hopes that people will finally take him seriously. Despite people constantly underestimating him because of his less than serious television role, he is a highly capable actor. Kevin is still finding his place in the world, which resembles CGS students who are in the midst of deciding what to major in.

5. SAR: Beth Pearson

Married to Randall. A maternal figure and part-time "nurse", Beth helps take care of William when he gets sick. She cooks, cleans, and runs her household in an organized manner.

6. CAS: Rebecca Pearson

CAS students have a wide variety of interests and talents. Jack's wife Rebecca totally would have been in CAS if she attended BU. An intelligent singer and mom who is eager to broaden her horizons, Rebecca learns something new every day.

7. COM: Kate Pearson

Kate can talk someone off the ledge when they are feeling sorry for themselves or prevent others from making bad decisions. An excellent communicator, she is close with almost everyone in her family and handles conflict well.

8. ENG: Tess Pearson


Randall and Beth's eldest daughter, she is a fast learner and a good student. Tess is great at chess and wise beyond her years. She is a rule-follower and has the logical mind of an engineer.


9. Questrom: Randall Pearson

A business man with a knack for numbers, Randall is one of the most complex and likable characters on the show. Frequently found wearing a suit, his seemingly uptight demeanor dissipates when he is around close family and friends. Similar to the students in Questrom, Randall harbors workaholic tendencies.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
