If National Greek Houses Were "Parks And Recreation" Characters
Bustle

Parks and Rec has been a Netflix favorite for a while, especially among college students. And there are definitely similarities between our favorite characters and our favorite sororities and fraternities.

1. Leslie Knope - Chi Omega

Leslie would be involved all over campus while still making time for the people she values, just like a Chi Omega. She puts her heart and soul into everything she does. Any Chi O girl would be lucky to have her as a sister.

2. Ann Perkins - Delta Gamma

Even if you've only seen one episode of Parks and Recreation, you can tell that Ann is Leslie's anchor. She keeps Leslie's hope alive. Ann would be the perfect Delta Gamma, not only because the anchor happens to be DG's symbol, but also because she epitomizes true sisterhood.

3. Ron Swanson - Kappa Alpha Order

Men of Kappa Alpha value chivalry. Ron would be a great KA - he is moral, humble, trustworthy, and a true gentleman.

4. Ben Wyatt - Beta Theta Pi

Brothers of Beta Theta Pi value intellectual growth, integrity, and trust. Ben embodies all of these values. Plus, most Betas will probably always be down to get a calzone.

5. Chris Traeger - Pi Kappa Phi

Pi Kappa Phis can make the best out of any situation. Their energy helps lead each college campus where they're represented. Chris is a natural leader, so he'd fit in with Pi Kapp.

6. Andy Dwyer - Sigma Nu

Sigma Nu's mission is to encourage commitment, character, and lifelong friendships. Anyone in Andy's life can count on him to stick around.

7. Tom Haverford - Sigma Chi

Sigma Chis are always pushing themselves beyond people's expectations while making an effort to support their friends. While many of Tom's innovative business ideas may not have succeeded, he's humble enough to learn from his mistakes, and he'll always be supportive of his friends through anything.

8. Donna Meagle - Zeta Tau Alpha

Donna's life is all about royalty, and Zeta Tau Alphas strive to "Seek the Noblest." She's great at hyping things up and loves anything pink, so she'd be a great asset to marketing one of Zeta's philanthropies - Think Pink - which is about breast cancer education and awareness. Every Zeta chapter needs a Donna.

9. Jerry Gergich - Tau Kappa Epsilon

Jerry isn't your typical "frat boy," and Tau Kappa Epsilon isn't your typical fraternity. Many TKE chapters are small and overlooked even though they have some quality people. Jerry definitely isn't perfect, but there's a lot of great work that he does that goes unnoticed.

10. April Ludgate - Unaffiliated

You really think April would willingly join a sorority? Think again.

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.

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.
