The Grand Canyon University Lopes have a lot going on. There are basketball games to attend, free t-shirts to stand in line for, and construction zones to dodge. But still, during a busy day of Chick-Fil-A milkshakes and Lope Shop sales, there are some questions that the students at GCU would like answered.

1. Where are we on another Chick-Fil-A location?

2. Can we start a "public safety officer of the month" award?

3. If Sunday is a day of rest, then why is homework due then?

4. Did you think we were joking when we asked to pave Colter?

5. Can I apply to be the voice on the fire alarm?

6. Can we require cooking classes before residents move in to an apartment?

7. Can we officially say we've painted the valley purple?

9. Why are there fireworks after every soccer game?

10. Why are the golf carts never available when I need one?

11. What are the chances I can start my own golf cart taxi service?

13. Why did you get rid of main pool?

14. Can we open up a campus at the Grand Canyon?

15. Better yet, IN the Grand Canyon?

16. How do I become best friends with Thunder?

17. Have we thought about an official name change to Grand Construction University?

18. Where did all the old furniture from Starbucks/Peet's/GCBC go?

19. Are faculty required to be awesome conversationalists, or did it just work out that way?

20. Why are classrooms subzero temperatures?

23. Is it true that you've "made it" when you're featured in a Canyon commercial?

24. How does the Arena get so loud at basketball games?

25. Can we extend the hours of the Arena Cafe for the sake of bomb grilled cheese sandwiches?

And lastly...

34. Is it just me, or is Lope life the best life?
