In This Article:

This show. Netflix choosing to adapt Gerard Way's comic into real life was TV (or binging) gold. This is not your average superhero show. It gives you a behind the scenes look at what it might be like to live the life of someone with powers. I felt like each character someone could relate to in some way. I think that is what makes a good show is when each character is complex enough to make us identify with them. Speaking of identifying, look below and see which character matches your college major!


1. Sir Reginald Hargreeves - Engineering

Giphy

This man invented a talking chimp and a bionic woman all while at the same time creating a crime fighting force to save the world. Like engineering majors, he is driven and is passionate about his inventions and creations and finds new ways to make the world more efficient through technology.

2. Mom (Grace) - Hospitality

Giphy

She cooks, she cleans, she deals with seven super teens going through puberty at the same time, mad respect for Mom on this show. Hospitality majors have to deal with a slew of different kind of challenges throughout their career, and they handle it with the same grace as Mom.

3. The Handler - Political Science

Giphy

The Handler keeps everyone and every event organized and in place. She leads precisely and is up to date on all historical events to make time run smoothly.

4. Diego - Criminology/Criminal Justice

Giphy

Diego has a tough outside, but he is always thinking about others. Most importantly, his passion is to protect the people he loves. Like Crim majors, he obviously has an affinity for justice and wanting to be a part of clearing up the crime in his town.

5. Number Five - International Studies

Giphy

Number Five has been just about everywhere, and he's got the attitude of your friend who just got back from their abroad trip from Spain.

6. Allison Hargreeves - Communications

Giphy

Allison is a master manipulator, like that's literally her power. She is subdue everyone in times of stress and be a strong voice and representative for the family.

7. Luther Hargreeves - Physical Education/Sports Management

Giphy

Luther has super strength and loyalty. He is willing to go above and beyond to keep the family together as a team.

8. Klaus Hargreeves - Theatre Performance/Production

Giphy

Klaus is not above going above and beyond to complete a mission. Whether it's traveling through time, or busting a snow globe on his head, he's ready to pull out the theatrics to save the day.

9. Vanya Hargreeves - Music Performance

Giphy

Vanya slays on the violin. Although sometimes seen as the fifth Beatle of the Hargreeves family, she is super in her own way. Her music ability and dedication definitely would make her a music major.

10. Hazel - Culinary Arts

Giphy

When Hazel isn't on the job, he's definitely trying every donut he can. Like Culinary Arts, he has respect for the food and understands the unique differences between every donut flavor. Same.

Cha-Cha - Business

Giphy

Cha-Cha is all business. She is always trying to carry out the job as effectively and quickly as possible.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
