30. Even guys are into the ring by spring phenomenon, and will tell you about a girl who is “so wife material."

31. Jesus Calling is on everyone's Snapchat stories.

32. Your most-liked Instagram is when you took a picture of your Bible, your coffee, and that Bible verse it took you 20 minutes to write in your Devo book.

33. It's not unusual to see people rocking animal shirts around campus.

34. Most girls never go a day without their XL sorority T-shirt.

35. You never worried about people stealing your clothes in your laundry room, sometimes strangers even folded them for you.

36. There is always the one guy who wears his “Reagan-Bush" frat tank daily.

37. Your professor actually knows when you aren't at class and will email you.

38. When you have a big problem, the best advice you can get is “Pray about it."

39. Chances are, you made your best friends when you all shared your testimony with each other.

40. Bob Goff quotes are everywhere.

41. Your professors end their emails with either “God Bless" or “In His Name."

42. Christian Hipster is more than a look or a Twitter handle, it is a lifestyle.

43. When people from home ask why you choose this college you say “for the Christian atmosphere."

But the number one way you know you go to a Christian University is that you love being surrounded by people pursuing Christ daily. You chose the university because of how centered it was on Christ, and you do not regret it one bit.
