Michael: Engineering

He can create anything and everything but no matter how hard he tries, nothing ever seems to work out for him.



Tahani: Drama

Tahani pretends to be good, but she is ultimately the most conceited person you could ever meet. At least she's beautiful and has that killer accent.


Jason: *Drops out of school to do drugs and be a DJ*:

You have to have at least a few more brain cells than Jason (not to be confused with Jianyu) to be able to make it in college. Jason's the guy that dropped out the first semester to try to make it big using his Soundcloud account.



Good Place Eleanor: Psychology

Critical thinking, problem-solving, self-improvement. Eleanor has cracked the code of human (and demon) behavior and she learns something new every day.



IRL Eleanor: Math

Only in a math problem would someone buy 20 assorted family-size bags of chips. Also, no one likes math majors. Math majors don't even like math majors.



"Real Eleanor": Pre-law or Pre-med, whatever makes parents proud

"Real Eleanor" is the definition of perfection, so she obviously has to be a doctor or a lawyer. Parents won't settle for anything less.



Chidi: Education

He's patient, tells bad jokes, and has trouble interacting with adults. Plus he can teach Eleanor to be good over and over (and over and over) again, which takes some serious commitment.


Shawn: Business

Shawn has no moral or emotional compass and honestly just wants to see results. If it's not working, he's not going to keep funding it, period.

Jianyu: Religious Studies

Jianyu the monk (not to be confused with Jason the DJ) is the epitome of peacefulness and spirituality (on the surface at least).


Janet: Philosophy

Is there any other major that can claim to know everything? No, probably not.



Bad Janet: Political Science

Bad Janet just wants to see the world burn. She couldn't care less about anyone she goes around creating anarchy wherever she goes.

Mindy St. Claire: Science

Mindy has been on her own in the medium place for so long that she's forgotten how to interact appropriately with people, similar to socially inept science majors that haven't left the library anytime in the last 4 days. Plus she's got some serious alcohol dependency issues— so definitely a science major.

Trevor: Journalism

Always trying to get up close to people in order to get the dirty gossip before anyone else, Trevor is the epitome of the bad place. You know you can't trust him and yet, you almost feel like you want to.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
