I’m sure many of you know the struggles of meeting someone new and before you even get the chance to ask their name, immediately are asked “What are you studying?” Well, sigh no more, Leslie Knope and her hilarious cast of characters from the hit TV series Parks and Recreation are here to give you a new way of seeing your chosen field. Here’s the majors as told by gifs from Parks and Rec​!

  • Philosophy Majors: Asking the big questions…

​          

  • Psychology Majors: “Well then, welcome to the Terrordome.”

          

  • English Majors: #metaphors, amiright?

 

  • Theater Majors: After a long day of rehearsal, the show must still go on…
