What Each College Major Is Like A Superhero

I've often wondered if I were a superhero, who would I be? I think someone's major in college tells a lot about their personality and what is embodied in their chosen career path. Now, this list will be a bit slanted towards the wonderful students of Corban University, but in a lot of ways it can apply to other students.

1. Business=Batman

Batman, aka Bruce Wayne, is a business tycoon and knows the ins and outs of the business world. He's also a tad bit ruthless and ingenious, and fights for his desired outcome.

2. English=Green Lantern

The Green Lantern carries a ring of power that allows him to create all sorts of shapes out of energy. English majors do quite the same. Their out-of-box brains allow for many creative solutions.

3. Communications=Black Widow

Communication is a jack-of-all-trades sort of pursuit. And, like Black Widow, it calls for a lot of flexibility and gymnastics in areas of verbal, written, and bodily communication.

4. Health Science=Mr. Fantastic

Mr. Fantastic is actually first and foremost a doctor. Oftentimes, that calls for him to stretch himself in unimaginable ways for the betterment of those in his care.

5. Exercise Science= The Flash


The Flash is wicked fast and when dealing with the human body, we want them to work at full capacity all the time. Luckily, the exercise folks help speed up the process of healing.

6. Accounting=Rouge

Rouge has the ability to draw energy from others in order to heal herself and save the day. However, it's a dangerous responsibility, because someone's life, or their finances, are in her hands.

7. Music Education=Nightcrawler

Nightcrawler can transport himself through space to various places. So being essentially a double-major, music ed majors have to be in multiple places at once. They flip between music classes and education classes with flawlessness, though for 8 ams they may not look entirely human.

8. Elementary Education=Ant Man

Get it? Because they're so small! Just kidding. It takes a lot of practice to flip between being an adult and dealing with very young children every day.

9. Secondary Education=Falcon

The Falcon, aka Sam Wilson, is an ex-pilot, so he's been through stuff. And he has this sort of "devil-may-care, but we're going to do what we gotta do" kind of attitude. Education majors of this sort are usually a bit more specialized, so that allows for more in depth study.

10. Journalism=Spiderman

I know, everyone is going to ask "what about superman?" Hold on to your supersuits. Peter Parker, aka Spiderman, literally takes photos of himself as Spiderman for his job. He's also willing to put himself in some ridiculous situations in order to save the day and get the story.

11. Political Science=Daredevil


Daredevil, aka Matt Murdock, is actually a lawyer by trade, so he knows the ins and outs of the law; but sometimes it requires a little creative underhandedness to get justice done.

12. Ministry=Superman


At Bible schools, like Corban, Ministry is often seen as the most heroic of all the career paths. And due their study in apologetics, they have few weaknesses.

13. Sports Management

Because we all know the God of Thunder would have blast managing athletic teams. He'd definitely put the Hammer down if they didn't do their burpees.

14. Biblical Studies/Theology=Captain America


Captain Steve Rogers is the All-American with little fault; and often at Christian colleges we look at those who pursue bible and theology in a similar way. They pursue justice and patriotism in the name of Heaven.

15. Mathematics=Iron Man

Because Tony Stark is a genius who talks a mile-a-minute, leaving all of us staring in complete confusion. But someone who can understand the concepts and applications of mathematics certainly is cool enough to wear the suit.

16. History=Wolverine

Wolverine is self-regenerating, so he's really old. He's certainly seen a lot of history, and knows a lot. Just don't get the facts wrong, or else you'll get clawed.

17. Humanities=Doctor Strange

Doctor Strange deals with a whole realm, or multiple realms, of possibilities. As does the humanities. It's a strange pursuit, but one that definitely requires a lot of elevated thought.

18. Music=Gambit

Hailing from Louisiana, Gambit's got a jazzy sort of feel to him. He's a bit eccentric and knows how to masterfully play his cards well.

19. Psychology=Professor X

The guy has mind reading powers, come on! And yet he chooses to use it to help people unlock their potential.

20. Intercultural Studies=Black Panther

Sometimes it can be like wading through a jungle to understand someone else's language or culture. But Black Panther scales and hops the trees like he's walking through a park.

21. Marketing=Human Torch

Johnny Storm certainly knows how to market himself. He plays the crowd and knows exactly what they want, and how he can use that to his advantage; but he uses that to instead help save the world, again.

22. Criminal Justice=Wonder Woman


She's a woman on a mission for justice. Plain and simple.

23. Media Arts=Deadpool

Deadpool repeatedly break the fourth wall and sort of does thing really outside the box. He's cutting edge.

24. Forensic Psychology=The Hulk

The non-threatening side of the Hulk is the genius Dr. Bruce Banner. The Hulk perfectly embodies the split-personality disorder ascribed to heroism.

25. Worship Arts=Hawkeye

Because he repeatedly has to remind people that he's an Avenger too! He's the heart of a lot of superheros, and does amazing things, regardless of lack of superpowers. Plus, he's seriously sassy.

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.

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.

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.
