Colleges and universities are home to a vast variety majors and programs encompassing a range of students; however, each of these majors and programs bears an assumption, a stereotype, or even more so a symbol. These symbols come in all shapes and forms but what can encompass them profoundly and subtly simultaneously is a drink.

You cannot walk onto a college campus without seeing a student with some form of liquid. Thus, bringing these two ideas together, here are the college majors as drinks.

1. Nursing: Black Coffee

It's true. Nursing majors run on coffee. You would be surprised not to see them with cup or mug in hand whether it be from Dunkin', Starbucks, or that sketch coffee vending machine in a classroom building. Coffee keeps these nursing majors going to their clinical, morning lab, or brutal lecture.

2. Education: Chocolate Milk

On the outside the education major seem bland. They fall into the stereotype we had as children believing are teachers were boring just like the dull brown exterior of chocolate milk. Other college students may also believe the education major lacks the amount of work and does not nearly do what anything equivalent to their workloads. But, just like chocolate milk if one looks deeper it is rich. Education majors have a lot to do in terms of lessons and helping children. Education majors as future teachers are sweet just like chocolate milk. And to the chocolate milk that lacks that chocolate-y goodness, these are the teachers that weren't so sweet.

3. Diplomacy: Long Island Tea And Other Island Drinks

They may seem quiet or reserved but do not underestimate the competence of a diplomacy major. Diplomacy majors are secretly stronger than what their peers think just like the power of the classic Long Island Iced Tea. Don't be fooled by their reserved nature as they are powerful in their ideas, skills, and professionalism. Rich in strength like this drink, the diplomacy major possesses information and skills about esoteric topics like international affairs and policy. Not many others are willing to understand these topics but diplomacy majors are.

4. Psychology: Tea


Psychology majors are lovers of deep conversation, calm settings, and analyzing behavior. Thus, psychology majors are representative of this traditional conversational staple. Like tea, psychology comes in all different varieties reflecting the diversity in the field. What is morning brunch or discussion with a relaxing hot cup of tea to relax the mood and inhibitions?

5. Business: Liqueur

At the roots of our economic system and enterprise are the business majors. The cliche is to picture one walking through New York's Financial District on Wall Street in business formal attire. Just like liqueur, they seem fancy on the surface but are not always. Yes, they can be but other times you can find them in business casual attire in your town or at your school using their degree.

6. Journalism: Latte

Such an elegant drink for the day dreamer and thinker that embodies the journalism major. From Chai to Pumpkin Spice, lattes come in all different varieties just like the content of journalists. Lattes provide just the right amount of caffeine and elegance for the journalist in the spotlight who is up and ready around the clock to respond to a breaking story. Lattes also can have an exotic nature reflecting the different setting in which journalists write.

7. Law: Water

Water is the most logical drink there is to quench one's thirst and some could consider it the dullest of drinks to order. Law majors are logical and to the point. They use logical strategies to state their case as they are also well first in the black and white nature of the laws and policies. Water is also symbolic of their famous courtroom setting to counter the sweating and intense nature of a case.

8. Biology: Green Smoothies

Biology majors are studying life from plant life to animal life to the basic structures of life. It isn't uncommon for biology majors to be on a healthcare track so green smoothies and their health nature are more than appropriate to describe them. These majors are full in life in terms of personality and knowledge trying to educate themselves to help life forms and understand them. Green being the color of life supports a biology majors studies just as a smoothie fuels them for hardcore studies and a healthy routine.

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.
