If College Majors Were Characters From 'Shameless'
Den of Geek

College is a fun and dysfunctional place. Not too unlike the Gallagher family and their friends in Shameless. So if all the many majors that go along with college were matched with the Shameless counterpart, who would you be? Are you a smart-ass genius like Lip? Or more of a crafty and resourceful Svetlana? Here is a complete match up of the Shameless cast to which major they most accurately represent.


1. Fiona = Nursing

I know what you are all thinking. When did Fiona ever do anything on the show remotely medical? The answer is: never. But I see a lot of similarities to Fiona and a nursing major. They work long, hard hours. They are under insane amounts of pressure. Not only that, but they are responsible for caring for people's lives.

2. Lip = Philosophy


Lip is one of those people who could have succeed at anything but ultimately decided to go with Philosophy. This major knows how to look at all angles of a situation and assess it perfectly. Wise beyond their years, and have most of the times been through a lot.

3. Ian = Criminal Justice


Criminal Justice majors are some pretty tough cookies. Some can even say they have a little bit of a thrill seeker side to them. Though one thing is for sure, they always try to do what is right. Just like Ian, who both has his wild side and his responsible side.

4. Debbie = Education


Like Debbie education majors are nurturing people, but they also know how to get stuff done. They don't mess around and get crafty with whatever situation is thrown at them. When it comes to handling kids you have to know when to get resourceful to get the job done.

5. Carl = Science


Carl may be a mad scientist when it comes to smarts, but personality wise he fits a science major to a T. Science majors are determined individuals. They know how to put in the hard work to get what they want. And when they want something, nothing is going to get in their way.

7. V = Fashion

There has yet to be an episode on Shameless where I don't see V strutting off a fabulous outfit. Fashion majors are bold, confident people who know how to step outside of the box. And if that doesn't sound exactly like V than I don't know what does.

8. Kev = Social Work

Kev has lived through the system and has seen how difficult it can be. Social worker majors have a lot of drive in them, not only to get the work done but to also make a difference. I see that same type of drive in Kev when it comes to his family and business. Along with that to great social worker you have to have passion and a big heart. Two things that Kev most definitely has.



9. Svetlana = Business/ Marketing


Like Business/ Marketing majors Svetlana knows how to not only get what she wants but also how to give the people what they want. Not only that but she knows how to multitask, a business/ marketing majors biggest asset. She is crafty, beautiful, and brilliant. All while making money left and right.

10. Frank = Drop out


Frank is that kid you only saw on the first day of call and then the rest of the semester watched stumble to and from the bars. It is not until finals time when they finally realize how much they have screwed up and need to either leave town now or cram a whole semesters worth of material into their brain by test day.

11. Monica = Communication

Monica may be crazy, but man does she know how to talk. Communication majors need to be great with people. Not be afraid to go up to anyone and strike up a conversation about anything.

12. Mickey = English

English majors are good with their words, both on paper and in person. By just their words they can leave you feeling like a million bucks or totally defeated. Mickey may choose his fists over his words sometimes, but when he does talk he knows how to leave an impact in some way.

13. Karen = Theater

Like Karen Art/ Theater majors know how to put on a great show. They keep the audience guessing all the time on what exactly is gonna happen next. There is never a dull moment when they are around.

14. Shelia = Undecided


Like undecided majors, Shelia is very go with the flow. Just going day by day and doing what needs to get done. That is until one day inspiration and passion hits full force and they are off doing what they love.

15. Jimmy = History

Jimmy is that History professor that people either love or hate, there is no in between. This is not at all to bash on History majors. Like history majors Jimmy is always telling stories and knows insane details that know one else would ever remember.

16. Mandy = Math


Those who major in math are extremely smart. Though sometimes they do not always know how to balance between their studying and their social life. Mandy is kinda like a math major in the sense that she is a smart girl who just doesn't always know how to balance things out.

17. Jody = Psychology


Jody may be a sensitive soul, but he understands people. Not only that, but patient and forgiving. All key things needed to be a successful a psych major.

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.

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.

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.
