In every Disney movie, the princess seems to easily overcome an obstacle with the help of her sassy and often times furry side kick. In the end, she become a better person while finding true love. We all know college would be much easier if the black squirrels gave us advice and if finding a future husband was promised before graduation. The Disney Princesses have it so easy, but here is their backup plan if they weren’t royalty and were transported to Kent State.
Snow White is an affluent sorority girl from the suburbs of Cleveland. She’s a fifth year senior, who according to her Twitter profile is “Young and misguided, but that’s another story.” White’s misguided ways have led her to change her major at least four times. She started as a nutrition major and worked at the Food 4 Thought Cafe in Bowman Hall for a month before getting fired. She was constantly late and served rotten apples to customers. White also failed her science classes because she was more worried about becoming a fraternity sweetheart and finding a man who treats her just like her daddy than studying and going to class. White is currently a broadcast journalism major. Her professional Twitter account consists of retweets from Tomi Lahren.

She spends most of her time in the library and is still pretty shy to Kent’s social scene. When she is invited to a party, she always leaves before midnight and when she’s stressed, she feeds the black squirrels and talks to them.

Rapunzel is an only child who spent most of her time in her room. She used to be bullied by the other girls for her long hair, and her parents over compensated for her lack of friends by buying her art supplies, a MacBook Pro and a pet chameleon. Rapunzel is a freshman, visual communications design major and a bit of a loner. When she’s not holed up in her room working on projects, she is video chatting with her pet chameleon Pascal, and bailing her twenty- five-year old boyfriend and Portage County’s petty theft criminal Flynn Rider out of trouble.
Merida is only a freshman, but It’s impossible to not spot her on campus with her bright red, curly mane and bow and arrow. She is president and founder of the Kent State Archery Club. She always carries her bow and arrow on her back to each class and is often seen pulling her rolling backpack up the Esplanade.
Merida has earned the nickname mountain woman and horse girl on KSU Confessions’ Twitter. “My geology professor lets mountain woman hang up her bow in the closet,” someone tweeted. Another person tweeted, “Horse girl asked me if I had any tape. Like she doesn’t have enough photos on her binder.” Most people can’t get past her accent “She says she’s from Canton, but she sounds like she’s from, I don’t know, Ireland or somewhere. Does anyone know where Horse Girl is really from?” Merida doesn’t about care what other people think. She strongly believes everyone is in charge of their own feelings and fate.
