If there's one thing the Pennsylvania State System schools are good at, it's sticking together when things go south. Like last fall, when the union and the state system were fighting, we all had to come together to fight for our faculty just as if they would if it was us on the line. The cast of Stranger Things is no different; they all banded together when it was most important. Here are 11 of the Pennsylvania State schools as Stranger Things characters.

1. Bloomsburg - Hopper

Bloom and Hopper both seem like people who drink a little too much at first, but all in all, they give back to the community. They're also incredibly investigative and are the best at finding out what they need to. Their intelligence lies elsewhere, but it's okay because it still ends up saving everyone.

2. Lock Haven - Mike Wheeler

Like Lock Haven, Mike Wheeler is not only loyal to the things he cares about, but he's always willing to go the extra mile. He may lose sight of the bigger picture sometimes, but his heart is in the right place.

3. Millersville - Will Byers

Just like Will Byers, Millersville is also in the middle of nowhere, it's just not quite as creepy and scary as the Upside Down. Also, Millersville is a pretty fantastic friend and always loyal to their MU family.

4. Shippensburg - Nancy

Just like Shippensburg, Nancy is still learning the ropes of independence. She doesn't always make the best decisions and often suffers the consequences from it, like leaving Barb to die. However, both are severely loyal, resourceful, and will fight to get what they want.

5. Slippery Rock - Barb

Slippery Rock is smart and underrated, just like Barb. We don't hear too much about them from other schools, besides the rare conference being hosted there, but we'd still care about them if something happened.

6. West Chester - Joyce Byers

On the outside, West Chester and Joyce Byers look like normal people, just trying to get by. But on the inside, they're both a little crazy, but in the best way. Both are loyal, impulsive, and determined to achieve what they set their mind to.

7. IUP - Jonathan

Just like Jonathan, not a lot of people know IUP exists, but they're smart, and they're trying their best. They have a deep appreciation for the arts and student activities. Like Jonathan does for his photography, and also monster-hunting. That's a student activity, right?

8. Edinboro - Dustin

There are little to no chain restaurants in the town surrounding Edinboro, and it's students really dig that. It's the perfect, quaint, and original town to surround such a small and quiet university. Dustin is a unique friend; he's always thinking outside the box to get his friends out of trouble. There could never be another Dustin, just like there could never be another Edinboro.

9. California - Steve

Steve and California of PA have a lot of in common; they both rely on their environment to thrive, they're well-known, and they're close to something much greater than they realize. Without the college, the town of California wouldn't last, just like without Steve's mean friends, he wouldn't survive. Both are popular for their personalities, and while California of PA is close to Pittsburgh, Steve is close to being a good boyfriend toward the end of Season 1.

10. Clarion - Eleven

Just like the students at Clarion, Eleven really loves hanging out in the woods. Also, just like the badly planned layout of Clarion, Eleven doesn't make the best decisions. However, both Eleven and Clarion are willing to put themselves before their peers and protect what's important to them.

11. Kutztown - Lucas

Lucas and Kutztown are the most alike because they're unique and loyal to their families, whether that family is blood or friendship. Due to their loyal and original personalities, they're not too sure about opening up to or teaming up with new people. They are the most cautious person in group projects because they know they've got the best idea.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
