15 Signs That You Go To The University Of Tulsa

The University of Tulsa is home to about 4,000 students. Every day, we walk to class surrounded by genetically cloned trees and think about how we wish that Chick-fil-A was open for breakfast on campus. Despite the that issue, TU students are proud Golden Hurricanes. Here are some signs that you go to this awesome school.

1. You know to avoid ACAC around noon.

And the Benvenuto line? So. Dang. Long.

2. You also know that it's not technically ACAC anymore, but you refuse to call it ACSU.

3. You know that PE doesn't stand for gym class anymore.

4. You know that there's no prettier view than a Tulsa sunset behind the skyline.

5. You know the adorable/somewhat creepy love story between Lottie Jane and John Mabee.

"Nothing can be built between the two halls...so they can eternally stare into each other's eyes..."

6. You've had to explain what a Golden Hurricane is to outsiders hundreds of times.

It's a dust storm. I don't know why it's our mascot.

7. You understand the fact that TU is the University of Tulsa, not Tulsa University.

8. You realize that Goldie is probably the biggest celebrity on campus.

You saw her and got a picture? #goals

9. And that Stead is a close second.

10. You have a love/hate relationship with the caf.

But Saturday and Sunday brunch will never disappoint.

11. You have a strictly hate relationship with TU wifi.

12. You don't know why but when one printer is out at the library, they all are.

^^something like this.

13. You're happy about low gas prices but also understand the negative implications for many of your friends who plan to work in the oil industry.

14. You own a hurricane flag even though you live in landlocked Oklahoma.

Just like this guy's.

15. You either lived through or heard horror stories about the cricket invasion in 2013.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
