If College Majors Were Dishes Served At Your Thanksgiving Feast

Pass the plate of science.

If College Majors Were Dishes Served At Your Thanksgiving Feast

I know with Thanksgiving break coming up, y'all are not trying to think about classes and things of that nature.

However, the foods surrounding your dinner table are not much different from college majors.

1. Turkey: Pre-Med

Turkey is one of the most difficult foods to master, but so beneficial to the dinner. You can't have Thanksgiving without it. Pre-med majors are the same way. They don't have it easy at all, but without them, we'd all be screwed.

2. Stuffing: Science

Stuffing works great inside the turkey but it also has the strength to stand on its own. Science is the same way. It pairs well with medical majors but can be by itself.

3. Mac & Cheese: Nursing

Mac and cheese is a beautiful dish, full of love and heart. I look at nursing the same way. Nurses have to be nurturing and full of love.

4. Rolls: English

English is one of the best majors for sure. I've thought about making it mine plenty of times. Rolls are one of my favorite foods at Thanksgiving because of their warmth and softness. That is the same joy reading and writing brings me.

5. Sweet Potato Casserole: Education

There's a certain level of finesse and sweetness in this dish at Thanksgiving that reminds me of education majors. Teachers are serious, with a sweet and fluffy exterior.

6. Mashed Potatoes: Journalism

I'm biased on both of these things. They are both of my favorites on this list. Journalism majors get a lot of criticism, but I think the lumps are the best part.

7. Green Beans: Undeclared

Like undeclared majors, green beans don't really have a set place. Are they best with a little salt and butter, a can of cream of mushroom soup? Who knows. They're just as great as all the others who know what they're doing, they just haven't found their niche.

8. Cranberry Sauce: Art

Cranberry sauce is so pretty. It almost resembles paint. Art majors are authentic and know who they are. Cranberry, when done right, is a beautiful thing.

9. Corn: History

Thinking back to the first Thanksgiving, I just feel like they had corn. It's historic and a classic.

10. Pie: Engineering

The pies at Thanksgiving are so intricate and detailed. And like with engineering, there are so many different kinds of pie. There's mechanical, electrical, computer, civil, and environmental engineering. And there's apple, pumpkin, sweet potato, and chocolate cream. They're all great, and all super complex.

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.
