10 People You’ll Meet at Iowa
Posted in Academics, Campus Life, Drama, General, Photos
1. The Future Copy Editor
- They are happy to edit your essays and mock your resumés.
2. That person who should not be in that major
- I have changed my major twice, so I know about the stumble. Sometimes it hits you right in the face.
3. The person who destroys the curve
- It’s like they were born to take this class.
4. English majors
- Their lives are deep, dramatic, and mysterious odysseys. They can’t turn off the eloquence.
5. Discussion Dude
- On the surface, questions appear serious. Usually turn out to be complicated musings. Everyone nods along.
6. People who pull all nighters
7. And people who don’t
- It’s not for everyone. I draw the line at 2am.
8. Over sharers
- These are the kids you occasionally sit next to, and never learn their name. However, you still know their whole life story.
9. This person
- After tests. Downtown. At bus stops. They’re clearly winning. But no one’s sure what exactly.
10. Your new BFF
- This is my personal favorite. Your partner in crime. You will become attached at the hip. You’ll memorize each other’s schedules. You’ll sign up for the same classes. You will coordinate grocery shopping. Trust me. It’s gonna get intense. Because out of 10,000 students who chose Iowa, you guys are going to choose each other. And that’s fate…or something.
11. YOU
If you decide to be a Hawkeye, we’ll meet you too!
Maybe you’re your own brand of crazy. Or maybe you’re surprisingly normal. Either way, we’d love to have you.
If you’re already a Hawkeye, chances are you’ve already caught the Herkitis- which means one of your friends is reading this and thinking how you are totally #9.
