My roommate and I had a long discussion the other day at dinner about all the different types of majors offered here at UConn. We also pointed out the fact that there a many different types of bagels, and naturally came to the conclusion that there is a correlation between someone’s major and the type of bagel they come off as. As my roommate’s sweatshirt reads, “the whole world’s a bag of bagels.” Some are sweet, some simple, some messy, and some vibrant— but in the end, they are all just bagels. After a lot of debate, we came up with this list determining what bagel you are based on your major:
Science and MAth: Pumpernickel
A sophisticated bagel. Many avoid it because they don’t really understand it or know what it tastes like, but it’s in every bagel shop anyway. It’s got a rich flavor that takes time to appreciate, but definitely isn’t for everyone.
Arts: Rainbow
Rainbow bagels are vibrant, fun to be around, and full of personality. They may taste like any other bagel, but they make up for it in good looks and character.
Business & Economics: Plain
A popular major paired with a popular bagel. It’s a common choice favored by many both uncertain, or completely certain, of what they want and enjoy.
Engineering & Technology: Asiago
And now on the other end of the spectrum, we have a complicated major paired with a complicated name. They sound like they’d be expensive…something only an engineering major could afford every day.
COmmunications: Poppy Seed
Basically a plain bagel with a bit of pizazz. Wants to pass off as a fancy science, but is more practical than the rest of them.
Education: Blueberry
A popular choice for sweet-tooths and sweet people! They think every kid is going to love them, but most just go for the plain instead.
Languages: Cinnamon-Raisin
These bagels aren’t always the first-choice, but those who do pick them keep going back again and again. There’s a lot these bagels have to offer, but they tend to be ignored for more popular choices.
Social Science: Sesame
Another plain bagel with a bit of pizazz. Popular choice for many, and although people might think it’s a little basic, there’s a lot to love that’ll keep you coming back for more.
Health Care: Multi-grain
They have great intentions, but are judged from afar. Once you get to tasting, they really are as good as any other bagel! Especially with the benefits they provide!
History: Everything
They’re complicated and can get very, very messy. It’s a classic bagel that most have heard of and tried, but few really know everything it’s made up of.
All jokes aside, every bagel (or major) is a good bagel. Whatever works for you is best! Now that you’ve made it to the end of this article, go treat yourself to your favorite bagel! You deserve it <3
