Graduation season is slowly coming upon us, and it's time to start planning the parties, packing for trips, and, best of all, booking hotel rooms (says no one, ever). Before you begin your search for the best hotels near Butler University's campus, scan through this guide and determine where you can use your Butler student privilege for one of the last times. Thirty hotels partner with the university to offer special rates for all Butler students.

Be sure to book in at least two weeks in advance. Ask for the Butler rate.

Ranked #1 by U.S. News in the "Best Indianapolis Hotels," Conrad Indianapolis is known for its prime location and modern amenities. Before your big graduation day, you can enjoy a spa day at the full-service AVEDA spa and salon or enjoy a bite to eat at one of their restaurants. The hotel is less than 15 minutes away from campus.

Butler rate: $199 per night

1. When they go out of their way to help you.

2. When they are cleaning up a section of the store.

3. When they deal with your children being heathens.

4. When they listen intently to your coupon problems.

5. When they ask you about opening a credit card or rewards card.

2. "Wow, how tall are you?!"

3. You don't realize how much you're craning your neck until you talk to someone as short as you.

4. Hugging your friends is just asking for a face full of boob for you and makeup on their shirt for them. Awkward.

8. "Will the bus be on time?"

9. "How can I enter the room in the least obtrusive way possible?"

10. "WHY didn't anyone leave a seat on the end in case someone came late?!"

11. "Does this professor hate me now?"

12. "I'll be early next class..."

Getting hung up on is my super power.

1. The first call is the hardest

2. Getting hung up on before you say something

3. People don't live forever

4. It's exhausting

5. Getting hung up on the second you say where you're calling from

6. People will say anything to get you off the phone
