While it may have been a while since “swiping” brought back memories of Dora the Explorer’s arch enemy the kleptomaniac Swiper to mind, the act of “swiping” has recently taken on a whole new meaning across college campuses. This new phenomena has been an interesting one to observe, as it goes against everything we’ve been taught: don’t judge on first impressions. But, since we’ve all thrown caution to the wind for Tinder, we decided to go “all in” and create profiles for some of Drexel’s most well-known majors.
As with the app, please don’t take this too seriously. Just like you aren’t expecting to find your husband on Tinder, we aren’t expecting to accurately describe every major to a T. If you do, however, find yourself agreeing with us, please don’t hesitate to swipe right … and by swipe right, I mean like our Facebook page and follow us on Twitter.
Engineering: Looking for a study buddy and a flexible schedule. Who knows how long my homework will take but I’d love to have some company! I’m seeking someone who is a fan of late nights and sh*t talking professors
Design & Merchandising: Must love adventure and art, as well as listening to me complain about my impossible design class. The fastest way to my heart is to compliment my outfit, just saying.
Music Industry: I know all of the bands you’ll love in five years, but no, I can’t introduce you to anyone famous right now. Music is the key to the soul so if you ever loved a Nickelback song, please swipe left.
Biology: Ha, this Tinder profile doesn’t exist. Unless you want to cohabitate in the library while studying mercilessly for the MCAT, you’re better off waiting until I’ve completed residency and am ready for a consistent partner. If you do happen upon one of these random profiles, it probably says, “I hear you’re looking for your own Dr. McDreamy – here I am” or some other cheesy Grey’s Anatomy reference.
Computer Science: Please do not DM me with your tech issues. I am not IT support. I am also not smarter than you, I’m just better at googling. So please don’t feel intimidated, I’m just a normal student. Honest. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Communications: Let the conversation flow! If it feels forced, I’ll let you know. Our date will be featured on my blog, so make sure to follow me on Twitter, Instagram, and all other social media platforms to hear my real thoughts about you.
English: Our dates will consist of sitting across the table from each other at Joe’s while silently reading. Hope you’re ok with that.
Psych: Why are you on Tinder? How do you feel when you get a match, or when you don’t get a response from a ‘Super Like’?
Health Sciences: Are you a pulmonary embolism? Because I can’t breathe without you.
Culinary Arts: You have no idea what sexiness lies beneath those unflattering culinary pants.
Business: I may or may not show up to our date in a suit. It’s not because I’m fancy, I just came from an interview.
Sports Management: You wanna go to a Flyers game? Yay, sports!
We’d love to know your thoughts on these profiles! Please remember these were made in jest, but we’d love to hear your other suggestions. Tweet us at @hercampusdrexel with your own profile bio!
