Who would survive?

College Students Vs. The Zombie Apocalypse

We go to college to get prepared for our future lives and careers. But sometimes when studying gets a little too overwhelming you start to wonder... "what if the world ended tomorrow?" All that studying would be for nothing! Or would it? Getting an education is all about honing different types of skills and some students have a leg-up in the Zombie Apocalypse survival area. Here's a fairly accurate break down of how a couple groups out of the student body would do in a Zombie Apocalypse.

The Over-Enthusiastic Campus Humans Vs. Zombie Players

Survival Rate: 86%

These are the people that were ready for the Zombie Apocalypse. It's like they knew it was coming. They posted signs and banners all across campus for years. They practiced week after week. Not only do they know where all the good hiding spots are on campus but they know how to escape without getting caught. They're the ones that are going to make it out of campus, no, out of state on foot and survive better than the rest of us.

The Sorority Girls

Survival Rate: 40%

Some of them are going to die right away and they know it. When the Zombie Apocalypse hits, them and their srat squad will look outside, take a sip of their Starbucks and say out loud, "yup, I'm totally a goner."

The rest might panic and board themselves up in the sorority houses or drive away. This will last them a while until the water and electricity go out and they will have to figure out how to get out of being sitting ducks.

The Fraternity Gentlemen

Survival Rate: 35%

These are the ones that can't hang during a Zombie Apocalypse. A lot of poor choices will be made and a lot of them will involve alcohol, just like on your typical Thursday night at the Frat Mansion.

The Pre-med Students

Survival Rate: 56%

The first thing every single Pre-med student is going to think is "F@$& I STUDIED UNTIL MY SOUL DIED TO BE A DOCTOR TO EARN THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AND NOW THE WORLD IS ENDING???!!???" They're going to be pissed. But the Pre-med kids are going to be the first to realize that if you cover yourself in zombie guts, moan and limp around like you're already dead, the zombies will be tricked into thinking you're one of their own and won't have any interest in eating your brains.Go figure. Some of them make it out of the city while the others die while trying to help other people who got injured.

The Student Athletes/ Gym Rats

Survival Rate: 23%

Yes, they're bigger and stronger than everyone else. But cockiness is their downfall, just like when it's game time. Just because you're a foot taller and 50 pounds heavier than the average person, doesn't mean you can fight off 100 zombies with your bare hands. The ones that are smart enough to run as fast as they can away from the city are the ones who survive because they can outrun basically anyone or anything with all that training, including 100 zombies.

The Engineers

Survival Rate: 67%

The Engineering kids are going to be the ones that put together some taser, catapult, mini race car, titanium spear, or some other crazy device that's going to help them survive. They're going to be better at handling 100 zombies on their own and they're going to be better at escaping. But this is only if they're the kind of engineers that are good with their hands. The rest tried to figure out a way multi variable calculus could help them and failed.

The Underachievers and Hipsters

Survival Rate: 17%

"Wow a Zombie Apocalypse? That's pretty rad. Totally didn't see the world ending that way."

Everyone Else Who is Obsessed with The Walking Dead

Survival Rate: 100%

They've seen all this before and are ready to kick some zombie butt.

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:

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.
