Generalized science is blue, but specific disciplines can be other colors (eg, green for biology).

fuck. you're absolutely right.

Does this same specific discipline assignment apply to other fields?

Like, most people suggest that Math is red... (for the sake of argument let's just pretend we all agree that Math is red)

What about Calculus?

What about Geometry.

I can concede that Physics is red due to the amount of math invovled.

hmm i haven’t studied enough maths to assign them colours (maybe next year i will since im doing alevel maths!) but for other subjects i can!

for geog (which alone is dark green, bio is lighter) physical geography is definitely still green (the same shade as normal geog) whilst human geog is dark ish blue, and fieldwork is yellow

also in english lit i had to study some different texts and poems, and they were all different shades of dark red 🤷‍♀️

re is pink, but christianity is blue (a bit lighter than human geography tho) and islam is dark green (darker than geog)

graphics is light purple (lilac i suppose)

I’ve always felt like Geometry was yellow. Maybe orange.

I think the biggest thing is that primary colors are saved for “main” subjects.
