If These 45 College Majors Had Their Own Slogans

As the month of August comes to an end, it means millions of students are getting ready to head off to college. For the upperclassmen, it means another year of trying to survive the classes, but for the new freshmen...well, they don't really know what to expect.

College is basically a bunch of specialized schools that are right next to each other with the occasional food place in between buildings. Like high school, there are rivalries between neighboring schools, so it is no surprise that neighboring colleges within the same university trash talk each other. Here are 45 college majors and the slogans they would be as told by their rivals.

1. Linguistics

"Why learn to speak foreign languages when you can learn about them?"

2. Microbiology

"Never be comfortable at a party ever again!"

3. Industrial Engineering

"Everything is just so inefficient."

4. Agriculture

"It's all tractors and corn until you have to remember the algebra and science you thought you would never see after your eighth-grade science class ended."

5. Information Technology

"You like working with computers, but hate the people that use them."

6. Chemistry

"The only place alcohol is a solution."

7. Political Science

"Your opinion is wrong…"

8. Aerospace Engineering

"It really is rocket science."

9. Structural Engineering

"Because architects don't know what physics is."

10. Communications

"You will learn about how to convince everyone that your degree is actually meaningful."

11. Criminal Justice


"We are here because we watch 'Law & Order.'"

12. Counseling

Hiding our baggage while we help you deal with your own!

13. Pre-med

I'll probably switch to nursing in two years…

14. Marine Biology

"Come for the dolphins but leave studying algae and ecology."

15. Art History

"And you thought making art was pointless..."

16. Civil Engineering

"For the last time, we are not architects!"

17. Physics

"Everything you learned last week was wrong."

18. Psychology

"Good luck doing anything until you have a Master's degree!"

19. Biochemistry

"You thought you'd help cure cancer but you are actually making soaps."

20. Engineering

"Because you were good at math and science."

21. Mathematics

"I just want to be a math teacher..."

22. History

“So do you want to teach, or…?"

23. Creative Writing

"You can throw job security out the window."

24. Accounting

"Give us a ton of money to show the government you aren't sketchy."

25. Finance

"Accounting was just too hard for me."

26. Meteorology

"Nobody will listen to your forecasts but will say you're wrong anyway."

27. Environmental Science

"It is SOIL, not dirt!"

28. Anthropology


"No, we are not the ones who dig things up…"

29. Archaeology

"We don't dig things up either..."

30. Paleontology

"No, digging dinosaurs up isn't the only thing we do."

31. Statistics

32. Law

"You get paid to worry for your clients, and your six figures of student loan debt gives you great practice."

33. Philosophy

"I think, therefore, I am unemployable."

34. Mechanical Engineering

"I've only used a drill like twice, but here is how you have to build your jet engine..."

35. Music

"They go from bar to bar."

36. Wildlife Ecology

"Trading income for adventure since 1864."

37. Computer Science

“So, uh, can you fix my..."

“No, I probably don't know how to fix your computer."

38. Business Management

“My dad told me to come here and he's paying for it so I just kinda went with it."

39. Social Work

"No, we are not baby stealers."

40. Nursing

"Where every answer is right, but you are somehow still wrong."

41. Education

It's not about being right, it's about being right.

42.Graphic Design

"No, I won't make your logo for free."

43. Sports Management

"Because when you're an athlete, physical education is too predictable."

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.

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.
