If you didn’t walk around campus on a sunny day and think to yourself, God, my school is so pretty, you did it wrong. Not that it’s what’s on the outside that counts or anything (it is), but beauty makes the world go round. Kidding! (I’m not.) It’s not just the vanity in me, or my mother’s influence speaking here, either. Graduates from universities with particularly beautiful campuses regularly reported higher levels of satisfaction with their college experiences. Suck on that, people who say “beauty isn’t everything!”

After having spent her undergraduate years drinking $4 double LITs on a patio and drunk texting away potential suitors, she managed to graduate with an impressive GPA and an unimpressive engagement ring -- so unimpressive, in fact, some might say it's not there at all. Veronica has since been fulfilling her duties as "America's big," a title she gave to herself with the help of her giant ego. She has recently switched from vodka to wine on weekdays.
