Stereotyping by College Major

<p>Philosophy</p>

<p>Head in the clouds, vegetarian, makes his own clothes, tries to make every conversation he has existential.</p>

<p>Software Engineering</p>

<p>Smells bad</p>

<p>anthropology</p>

<p>Probably dumber than the Software Engineering major.</p>

<p>How about Art?</p>

<p>Wasting his own money, won’t be a wealthy man until he dies</p>

<p>Biomedical engineering.</p>

<p>a guy/girl who isn’t a hardcore engineer, but still likes the prospects of engineering and helping others. </p>

<p>film studies and mechanical engineering double major</p>

<p>I honestly don’t think I stereotype people much by their college major. It doesn’t say as much about a person as some think. And it isn’t nearly as important as people think it is while they’re in college…</p>

<p>The only stereotype I <em>might</em> have about a major is that if a certain major is mostly one demographic group… I would notice that. But that’s not a stereotype about them as people. It’s just having eyes.</p>

<p>Crap, sorry. I didn’t go far enough into the thread. Ok I’ll answer that last one.</p>

<p>I guess if I had to go by that description and nothing else, I would think the person was very intelligent and well-rounded… not because they double majored… but because they wanted to use both their right and left brain.</p>

<p>Um…</p>

<p>Religion.</p>

<p>God is great, God will answer all your prayers, all will be well. God has plans for all of you. Have no fear.</p>

<p>Philosophy major</p>

<p>An idiot who has no life experience, but loves to argue. Probably a woman or a gayish man</p>

<p>Chem engineer with a math minor</p>

<p>Edit: I was too slow again. Daaaarn.</p>

<p>Some overachieving foreigner who kills the curve.</p>

<p>Statistics</p>

<p>A loser who can’t do math, in other words, a failed mathematician.</p>

<p>language major, english and french?</p>

<p>A lazy American who is majoring in their family’s country of orgin’s language [probably learned the language along with English from an early age].</p>

<p>um… double major with humanities/international relations on a pre-med track</p>

<p>Person who really is just a humanities/international relations double major who is also taking a couple of science classes (if you didn’t get it, the stereotype is that this person isn’t going to med school).</p>
