Epic Major Battles of Union: Round Two: Business vs. IRR!

It is with disbelief and a saddened heart that I announce the results of the nursing versus communication battle: communication, 54% to nursing, 46%. How it happened, I have no clue. As with most PR things, there was probably a cover-up...but it is what it is. Congratulations to our communication majors; I’ll just be here, pulling up that one “trusted profession” Gallup poll to make myself feel better. 

Now, on to our next battle! In today’s metaphorical ring we have business versus IRR. What makes this battle even more special is that two of the respondents on opposing sides are roommates. And they were roommates? Well, we’ll see about that. So, without further ado, let’s swing right in! 

Question 1: What are ___ majors like?

“IRR majors are so intense. One small cut and they all pull [up] with gauze, and even some rope...don't know what for. They stay twinning; cargo pants, hiking boots, pocket knife and a Nalgene water bottle.” Moises Claros, Business

“It seems like they picked the boring major.” Anonymous, IRR

Question 2: What are some stereotypes about ____ majors?

“They like to act tough. They rarely cry, and when they do they only do so in the shower where no one can hear or see them.” Hannah Drewieck, Business

“Daddy’s money sent them to school. [Also] you always switch to business if you can’t make it anywhere else.” Anonymous, IRR

Question 3: What is the first thing ____ majors think when they wake up?

“What building they can rappel off of.” Max Lassel, Business 

“‘I can’t wait to be all these people’s boss.’” Jordyn Hammond, IRR

Question 4: If there was a national holiday for ____ majors, what would it be? 

“The national day of climbing anything.” Sydney Ramsay, Business 

“IBSD: International BS Day.” Anonymous, IRR

Well, there you have it. Now it’s up to you to decide the winning major; go vote on the Clocktower’s Instagram for which major you think is the best (business/IRR majors excluded from voting). And for the finale article of our Epic Major Battles of Union series, we will have the two winning majors go against each other, and then we will see who the true victor is! Until next time.
