It's officially that time of year, the Holiday season. The air is becoming unbearably cold and the holiday decorations are out in full swing on Commonwealth Ave. What better way to celebrate than with some holiday songs? Find out what festive song most describes your school in BU!
1. CGS (College of General Studies): “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer”
Rudolph is a story of a reindeer who is originally made fun of by the rest but ends up pretty awesome. CGS is sometimes seen as the “lesser” school of BU with nicknames like Crayons Glue Scissors, but in reality, CGS students are not to be underestimated.
2. COM (College of Communication): “Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer”
“Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer” is one of the most fun holiday songs. Just like COM students, it is outgoing and sure to make everyone laugh. Plus, who else would be able to put such a festive spin on a sad moment better than a COM major?
3. SHA (School of Hospitality Administration): “Baby It’s Cold Outside”
It is no secret that students of SHA know how to be hospitable. The song “Baby It’s Cold Outside” is definitely relatable to many BU students in SHA because they are the most welcoming group on campus.
4. Questrom (Questrom School of Business): It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas”
Stepping into Questrom can sometimes feel like you are stepping into another world. All of a sudden, everyone is in suits and dressed business professional. The song that most captures this essence of Questrom is, of course, “It’s Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas” because all of a sudden everything looks different when you walk through the doors.
5. CAS (College of Arts and Sciences): “Santa Claus is Coming to Town”
Arguably one of the most well known holiday songs, “Santa Claus is Coming to Town” is a lot like CAS. With tons of major options, everyone knows at least one person in CAS, just as everyone knows the words to this classic song.
6. ENG (College of Engineering): “Little Drummer Boy"
Engineering students are known to be more profound and focused on their studies. The song “Little Drummer Boy” encompasses the studious spirit of ENG because it is among the more serious of the holiday songs, but still loved by all.
7. SED (School of Education): “Do They Know It’s Christmas”
Even during the holidays SED students are focused on educating people. “Do They Know It’s Christmas” is the perfect blend of festive and informational, just like students in SED.
8. CFA (College of Fine Arts): “Carol of the Bells”
CFA students are as creative as they come. The song “Carol of the Bells” best describes students with a major in CFA because it is definitely the most dramatic holiday song. With all of its eccentricity, “Carol of the Bells,” like CFA majors, is always a production.
9. SAR (Sargent College of Health and Rehabilitation): "Walking in a Winter Wonderland"
No matter the situation, Sargent students always know how to stay healthy and fit. “Walking in a Winter Wonderland” is probably the most active holiday song which is sure to win over any Sargent major’s heart.
