UT colleges as alcoholic drinks

UT-Austin is ranked a top party school by some liars. But pretend UT actually goes hard. What would each college’s drink of choice be?

 

  • Cockrell School of Engineering: Shirley Temple

  • A virgin drink.

  •  

  • College of Education: Skittles Vodka

  • Teachers love doing crafts. Soaking Skittles in vodka is something extra a teacher would do.

 

  • College of Fine Arts: Sangria

  • This drink takes tons of effort to make, but at least the end product is beautiful.

  •  
  • College of Liberal Arts: Sutter Home White Zinfandel

  • Y’all are not as creative as you think you are. PBR? No. Your grandparents were cracking open a can of PBR at 11 a.m. every morning, IT’S BEEN DONE. You can have this $9 bottle of pink wine that will make you puke the next morning even without a hangover. Take it and accept that you’re basic.

 

  • College of Natural Sciences: Irish Car Bomb

  • via GIPHY

  • Always on Snapchat in chemistry posting stories of things exploding or smoking? Try this drink.

  •  

  • College of Pharmacy: Water

  • Drink whatever you want at night, but any good pharmacy major knows you should set a glass of water next to your bed for your morning aspirin. Can’t mix aspirin and alcohol.

  •  

  • Dell Medical School: Vodka and cranberry juice

  • It’s healthy, right?

  •  

  • Jackson School of Geosciences: Scotch

  • Served on the rocks.

  •  

  • LBJ School of Public Affairs: Rum and Coke

  • Former President Lyndon B. Johnson had four buttons installed on his Oval Office desk: coffee, tea, Coke and Fresca. Add a little rum to any of these and it would be acceptable.

  •  

  • McCombs School of Business: Manhattan

  • Y’all think you’re special. You’re not.

 

  • Moody College of Communication: Margarita mix

  • via GIPHY

  • You forgot to bring the actual alcohol, but you tried your best.

 

  • School of Architecture: Beer tube

  • Choose any cheap beer, it doesn’t matter. Admire the construction and novelty of this monstrosity like you do in class.

 

  • School of Information: The cocktail menu

  • Who are you people? What do you do? Information? Okay, read the menu, I guess.

 

  • School of Law: Jack Daniel's

  • via GIPHY

  • Lawyers drink bourbon. You aren’t that fancy yet. You get whiskey.

 

  • School of Nursing: Long Island Iced Tea

  • Nurses go out for happy hour with their friends, gossip and drink Long Island Iced Teas until they get a little tipsy, then go home and watch Grey’s Anatomy. I think you have to finish season 14 before they hand you the nursing degree.

 

  • School of Social Work: Barefoot Moscato

  • Ever met a social work major who didn’t invite you to a “Wine and Whine” get together?

 

  • School of Undergraduate Studies: Bud Light

  • via GIPHY

  • You never really know what you’re getting (can? bottle? draft?), just that you really should pick something else.
