Tagowan 

Share definition Flag
The Tagowan are an ethnic group of Caucasian, East Asian, and African descent. They were a voyaging tribe in the early 1000s, thus there descendants are scattered throughout the world. The biggest concentrations of Tagowan people are found in small cities in South Africa, Canada, and the United States. Although historians argue where the group originated from, the Tagowan have no homeland of their own, similar to the Gypsies of Eastern Europe and the Hmong people of Asia near Vietnam. The Tagowan typically have fair to tan skin, but they have fine hair and an eye shape similar to their Asian ancestors. They resemble their African ancestors most in stature, typically being on the taller side with broad or muscular builds. They are the second wealthiest minority ethnic group today, only behind the Jewish people.
“It’s funny. Most people think my parents are Asian and white. I say ‘No, I’m Tagowan.” And they say, ‘But you’re from South Africa. Aren’t you African?’ I get those questions all the time. Ethnicity is a confusing thing to some. I’m actually the second most famous Tagowan person in the media. Mario Lopez being the first, but he’s only half.” - Elon Musk

Striver 

Share definition Flag
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
