If Virginia Colleges Were Characters From 'The Office'
The Office

The Office" is one of the most popular TV shows for the millennial generation. Whether you watched the nine seasons live, or binge watched the entire show on Netflix in two weeks, you probably call yourself a committed fan. You most likely have seen time taking buzzed quizzes to determine which character from the show you are, and you probably have taken it again because you didn't like the results. We have fallen in love with the characters, jokes, scenes, pranks, and relationships in this amazing show.

With that being said, this is my opinion of which character of "The Office" aligns with a few of the Virginia colleges and universities. Please enjoy.

CAUTION: THIS IS MY PERSONAL OPINION AND IS NOT MEANT TO INSULT ANYONE OR ANY SCHOOL.

1. Virginia Tech: Michael Scott

Probably the most popular school in Virginia, fun loving and the star of the show. You cannot have Virginia without Virginia Tech.

2.James Madison University: Dwight Schrute

Probably second best, behind Tech. It the Assistant to the most popular college in Virginia. Can get really crazy, but still stays on track.

3. UVA: Andy Bernard

The “Nard Dog” would be at UVA football games dressed to the nines. He screams UVA prep, and definitely be apart of the Virginia Gentleman Accapellla group.

4. University of Mary Washington: Pam Beesly

Not as popular as the other schools, but still a quality school. A school that you would be proud to go to, slightly artistic and very dream driven.

5. Old Dominion University: Creed Bratton

Buckwild, an atmosphere that displays every aspect of Virginia. Partiers, Rednecks, NOVA, Liberals, Republicans--- they have it all.

6. George Mason University: Jim Halpert

Not completely sure how you ended up here, but you don’t hate it. A diverse atmosphere with little surprises around each corner.

7. Virginia Commonwealth University: Kelly Kapoor


Unique, dramatic, and a good time. Need I say more?

8. College of William & Mary: Oscar Martinez

Knows nearly everything, cultured, and educated. That's why if Oscar was a Virginia college he would be part of the Tribe.

9. Christopher Newport University: Erin Hannon

Preppy, spirited, and proud to be a Captain.

10. Radford University: Meredith Palmer

There is no character to better describe this school than Meredith. A party animal who bounces back from whatever comes at her, whether it is getting her stomach pumped, getting hit by a car, or being forced to go to rehab. Radford students will bounce right back from these things and make an appearance at the party on Saturday.

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.
