The participants of this study were 231 collage students from Engineering Faculty at State University of Makassar. Sampling technique used in this study was accidental sampling with quantitative method. The result of this study showed that affiliative humor style positively related to optimism (r=0,314,p=0,000), self enhancing humor positively related to optimism (r=0,155,p=0,018), aggressive humor negatively correlated with optimism (r=-0,324,p=0,000), and self-defeating humor negatively correlated with optimism (r=-0,163,p=0,013). This study proved that affiliative humor and self-enhancing humor can increase the optimism. In contrast, aggressive and self-defeating humor can diminish the optimism among the students.
