If you’re a college student, you’ll know that your college ID is one of the most important possessions in your life right now. Without this ID, you can’t make your way into college buildings, you can’t buy food, and you can’t even borrow books from the library. Of course, despite their importance, countess college students lose their ID every single year. Apple has now come up with a solution to put an end to that…

Apple Software

Since its inception, the minds behind the brand have made it their mission to be as innovative and as modern as possible. Thanks to products such as the iPhone, the Apple Watch, the iPad, and more, people can connect all of their personal data through one software. This has since expanded into things like Apple Pay, which allows users to pay for items using just their phones alone. Now, they have improved their software to help college students.

Integrating It Together

The idea behind this new tech will allow college students to integrate their college ID to their iPhones and their Apple Watches. So, instead of having to carry around their ID with them at all times, they can simply tap their phones on the scanners instead. This will automatically be linked to their branded products, and make things much easier for everyone. At the moment, the company is only branching out to 12 colleges across the US, but they aim to make this more accessible for every college in the US as the years go by.

If you’ve ever lost your college ID, you’ll know how irritating it can be. Apple’s new idea aims to get rid of this annoyance and make separate college IDs a thing of the past. However, this does mean you have to buy Apple products…

Modern Family glued its viewers to their TV as it reveals the active life of an extended family, from dealing with kids to growing old. Today, we’ll present a brief overview of the Modern Family cast, detailing their growth from the time the show premiered to today.

Rico Rodriguez, also known for his role as Manny Delgado in Modern Family, kicked off his career in the movie industry before he was ten years old.

His time in front of the camera began with several minor roles before successfully landing a spot in the Modern Family cast.

Currently, Rodriguez has grown gracefully and transformed into a successful man who even had the self-discipline to publish a book in 2012. In addition to his media accomplishments, Rodriguez went on to become a voice actor for more animated projects for Disney and other studios.

His role in Modern Family earned him numerous nominations throughout his time on the sitcom. Rodriguez went on to start a production company with his sister, which he planned to prioritize after the show ended.

Julie Bowen plays the role of Claire Dunphy on the hilarious sitcom, Modern Family. After the first season premiered in 2009, she went on to receive six consecutive Primetime Emmy Award nominations from 2010 to 2015 for her well-played role as a supporting actress.

Before her time on Modern Family, comedy fans knew Bowen as Adam Sandler’s love interest in Happy Gilmore, where she performed her role more than excellently.

Currently, Bowen is happily married to Scott Phillips, and is also the mother of three sons who are Oliver, Gus, John – the last two are twins. Additionally, while on The Ellen Show, Bowen confessed that she might never have appeared on Modern Family as she almost traded the opportunity for another role.

Her role as Claire Dunphy made her a shining star, earning her six Emmy nominations for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series in 2011, 2012, and 2019.

Like many child actors, Nolan Gould began his acting career after featuring in multiple commercials, which allowed him to play the younger sibling (Luke Dunphy) on Modern Family. According to reports, his time on the show was rewarded with $70,000 per episode.

However, as the show became more popular, Gould, and many of the show’s child stars, had to fight for contract increases to keep their salaries in line with the show’s success.

Approximately a decade after and Gould is still going strong in Hollywood, starring in popular movies like Friends With Benefits and The To-Do List. Ultimately, if you enjoyed watching Gould’s charming face in every episode of Modern Family, you can look forward to seeing him in other movies as time progresses.

Gould is also an enthusiastic rock climber that occasionally posts videos of his adventures on Instagram for his fan’s viewing pleasure.

Before taking on the role of Mitchell Pritchett on Modern Family, Jesse Tyler Ferguson appeared in multiple Hollywood projects like Untraceable, in which he co-starred with Diane Lane. He was also a significant part of The Class and Ugly Betty, with his role being Gabe Farkus.

Although his role in Modern Family made him famous worldwide, Ferguson had already made a name for himself through the Tony Award-winning The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.

Ferguson remained close to the entertainment industry during his time on Modern Family, staging the one-man Broadway play, Fully Committed, where he played 40 characters. As time progressed, he found himself on So You Think You Can Dance as a judge on the show and is prepared to perform in the revival of the Tony-winning play, Take Me Out.

Additionally, Ferguson was nominated at the Primetime Emmy Awards, from 2010 to 2014, for “Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series” because of his role in Modern Family.

He’s famous for his involvement in successful projects like A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, The Producers, and Angels in America.

While he kept popping in and out of Modern Family over the years, he made several appearances on other TV shows including The Blacklist, The Good Wife, and Penny Dreadful. So far, Nathan Lane currently possesses 20 different awards.

Sarah Hyland appeared on Modern Family at the age of 19 as the eldest daughter of Phil and Claire, Haley Dunphy. However, before her role on the show as a 16-year-old, Hyland’s first involvement in any Hollywood project is her role as Howard Stern’s daughter in the 1997 film, Private Parts.

Overtime, Hyland gained more popularity for her roles in several successful films like Geek Charming and Struck by Lightning.

Fortunately, she accepted the offer and went on to star in various movies like The Smurfs, Big Trouble, and Madea Goes to Jail.

While she was fairly popular with a career in modeling and minor TV roles, there’s no doubt that starring in Modern Family as Gloria Pritchett was what made her a household name.

As previously stated, the most significant break in Vergara’s career was her role in Modern Family as Gloria Delgado-Pritchett. The performance got her nominated for seven Screen Actors Guild Awards, four Primetime Emmy Awards, and four Golden Globe Awards.

Stonestreet’s portrayal of Cameron Tucker landed him nominations for three Emmys, eventually winning the award for an actor in a supporting role in 2010 and 2012. While Modern Family stayed on the TV, Stonestreet took a role in other major films and television shows.

Aubrey Anderson-Emmons, daughter of the comedian “Amy Anderson,” is famous for her well-played role in the third season of ABC’s Modern Family in 2011. Unlike Rodriguez and Gould, Aubrey starred in the sitcom at the mere age of 4 and was also the youngest celebrity present at the Primetime Emmy Awards in 2012 and 2013.

According to Nolan Gould, Anderson-Emmons was shy as she hid behind her mother’s legs, asking if the cast were real people and if the set was a real house. Nevertheless, she played her part fantastically.

Over the years, Anderson-Emmons blossomed into a beautiful teen and has appeared in Bill Nye’s Netflix series Bill Nye Saves the World. It seems that she’s satisfied with her role on Modern Family as she hasn’t taken any new position since.

However, she’s an active star on Youtube with a successful channel called FoodMania. In addition to her YouTube channel, Anderson-Emmons manages a bamboo toothbrush company (Earthmania) with her mother when she’s outside of work and YouTube.
