16. George Eacker

He really does NOT know how to count to 10.

15. James Reynolds

Extortion is not a good look on ANYONE.

14. James Madison

James Madison wasn't an awful character, but he was sick for all of Act 2.

13. Maria Reynolds

Cheating on someone isn't cool, but cheating on someone for blackmail purposes is really not cool.

12. King George III

King George III is insane and semi-psychotic, but he does have some dope songs and even doper dance moves.

11. Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson is a morally-ambiguous character, but he does have some pretty solid political beliefs.

10. Peggy Schuyler

As iconic as Peggy is (#ANDPEGGY), she doesn't really have any character traits besides being left behind by her sisters.

9. Phillip Hamilton

Phillip Hamilton was a little impulsive, and that was his downfall. He looked pretty cute rapping, though.

8. John Laurens

John Laurens was kind of boring as a character, but Anthony Ramos has a beautiful voice and my sister would kill me if I ranked him any lower.

7. George Washington

I. love. George. Washington. so. freaking. much. Christopher Jackson could have made Washington one-dimensional, but he created a character that was deep and soulful.

6. Marquis de Lafayette

Lafayette was a much needed source of comic relief, and David Diggs set a record for most words per second during Guns and Ships!

5. Hercules Mulligan

Hercules Mulligan is such an underrated character and was the best flower girl anyone could ask for.

4. Aaron Burr

Leslie Odom Jr. could have portrayed Burr as the villain of the show, but he didn't. We could slowly see Burr unravel, and I know I somehow felt bad for him by the end of the show.

3. Alexander Hamilton

Alexander Hamilton made some questionable choices, but Lin Manuel-Miranda made Hamilton so endearing that you couldn't help but love him by the end of the show. We can see Hamilton's reasoning behind all of his questionable decisions, which makes him a more human character.

2. Angelica Schuyler

Angelica Schuyler was the character that stuck out to me when I first listened to Hamilton. She is strong and independent and knows exactly what she wants.

1. Elizabeth "Eliza" Schuyler-Hamilton

I don't think I could have chosen any other character to rank as #1. Eliza shows a tremendous amount of grace and kindness over the show. She forgives Hamilton after his affair and the death of their son, and she works to continue their family's legacy for fifty years after her husband died. We could all stand to be more like Eliza.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
