A non-surprising picture of UM girls throwin' up what we know on what appears to be a boat.

At the University of Miami, we students are aware of the many humorous stereotypes that accompany day-to-day life on the most beautiful college campus in one of the nation's largest booming Metropolitan cities, MIAMI! Home to an incredulously diverse student body, the 'Canes Family welcomes all different backgrounds to contribute to Miami culture, a delightful ethnic melting pot known for its high-profile output of the arts, superlative nightlife, luxurious lifestyles, eccentric personalities, variety of languages, beautiful people and weather alike. At the U, we go back and forth between working hard to maintain a reputation that reflects our sound academic prestige which rewards us with a groovy social life that's unparalleled at any other school. Now that we know what to expect, here are eight times University of Miami Students were not surprised.

1. When Hurricane Matthew "devastated" Miami and three days of class were cancelled.

A forecast of Hurricane Matthew nearing Miami at its strongest and most destructive point, luring us in with his sweet, sweet Southern twang.

Just kidding. As quoted from a wise Miami-FSU tailgate banner this year, "Hurricane Matthew missed wide right, must be a Seminole." In fact, as every student was quickly preparing for the worst of Hurricane Matthew, the real rush was to run to Gulf Liquors in time to grab as much Tito's or Korbel necessary to be shut-in from the world for the next 2 days. Hurricane party: check! Hurricane: not so much. This is the second year a storm has *not* threatened the U's ever-so-busy party schedule. Are we surprised? Nope.

2. Losing to FSU by a single point last football season, 20-19

Luckily, "Much Golden" no longer applies here, but it's time for doge to step it up on the field.

This year, UMiami welcomed one of our own, former QB Mark Richt to step up to the plate that Coach Al Golden buried in the dust in the 2015 season, despite some awesome plays from that season. We love having Coach Richt so far, but sometimes there are outside forces that mess up our juju--that entire loss was the result of a SINGLE POINT (are we really losers doe? nah)!! HEY HARD ROCK STADIUM--TAKE AWAY OUR TAILGATING, AND YOU TAKE AWAY THE SPECIAL RITUALS WE NEED TO SLAUGHTER FSU! With the heightened rules on student and fraternity tailgating this year, it took a rough toll on the overall Canes attendance. We thrive on our green and orange debauchery, so if it helps us win a game, let us 'Canes have at it!

Were we upset and disappointed at this turn of events? Of course, we hate FSU as much as they claim to hate us (because they ain't us). But are we surprised? Not too much... I like to think that the higher the GPA, the higher the potential for a successful future (*cough* the Hurricanes are coming)...Therefore, there's always next year, we'll see you on your home turf in Tallanasty "FSWho?" !

3. Hosting the 12th Republican Debate of the 2016 Election

Well, I can't say the University of Miami student body is that surprised about this one. Don't get me wrong, it's quite historic for a political debate during the 2016 Election to have occurred right here on our campus: there were protestors from all over Florida there to enact their First Amendment rights and voice their opinions on important issues such as #BlackLivesMatter, #Fightfor15 (minimum wage) and women's health issues. Which speaks volumes for the impending American Revolution... but for UM to host such painfully crooked idiocy at an institution that praises both Republican and Democratic American values is honestly disappointing, yet not completely surprising because, well, money. Attending a renowned private school has its perks: we get funding from lots of donors that are vital to the school's function and advancement; however, at the same time, we depend on them as lifeblood. If we're going to follow the trend of American politics: "money and politics are BFFs, the more you have, the more successful you are/will do".

HEY, did the Republican Party just pull up to UMiami to predetermine which billionaire will be chosen to deregulate business and exacerbate capitalism against the public good? Oh yeah, that's them. Are we surprised? Nah. But President Frenk and Shalala do a pretty good job of staying woke and assigning task forces to defeat the deplorables and protect our diverse student body at all costs! #CanesCareForCanes

4. When that one classmate you don't talk to very often said "Hey, you going to Ultra?"

Getter pictured above playing filthiest set at Ultra 2017.

He probably just wants to rave with you. Maybe he doesn't even know what that means. Maybe he just wants to fall in love to a pre-recorded set at the main stage. Maybe he knows you're not going, but wants to rub it in your face that he snagged a coveted $450 Ultra ticket and will probably spend most of the weekend in Chubbies and something with an American flag on it. Regardless, UM students are used to hearing this question every year, as each time UMiami students gather at University metro station to make the journey to UMF, where they can happily jump around in their underwear judgement-free and take pictures in the same iHeartRaves cheeky bottoms for a wild three days of EDM in the dance music capital of the US. So nope, we're not surprised, but we're glad you asked! *waiting on Okeechobee next year friends*

UMiami reminds you to squad up and stay safe when attending Ultra Music Festival! #CanesCareForCanes.

5. When David Beckham was seen playing soccer on the IM Fields and Leo DiCaprio was at UM to give a speech about climate change

It's no surprise that the likes of many celebrities associate themselves with the University of Miami, whether it's their alma mater or they are simply giving back to the community by working with the many causes UM is dedicated to. While the U isn't Beckham's alma mater, he flew down to Miami as part of a film he was making with UNICEF to empower women through soccer.

Leo DiCaprio sat alongside Mark Ruffalo screening his new film, Before the Flood, about climate change at Cosford Cinema.

Other celebrities spotted on campus/who share UM as their alma mater: Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson, Steve-O (did not graduate), Sylvester Stallone, Gloria Estefan, Ben Folds, Jerry Herman, Enrique Iglesias, Bruce Hornsby, Jeff Garlin, A-Rod, Kimbo Slice, Warren Sapp.

6. Going to Red Road Commons and seeing holes punched in the walls

If I had a dollar for every time I went to Red Road and saw at least one thing completely destroyed, I wouldn't need a college job...

Everyone at the University of Miami knows Red Road Commons is the hub of intense frat boy angst and rowdy pregames, all of which eventually lead to drunkenly punched holes in the walls (we all know it's you, building E) and empty bottles of Skol festively lining each hallway in this notorious complex. It's also noted that the walls are very thin so if you're not thinking of getting sleep in college, then this is the greatest place for you to live! Nope, we all expected this.

7. When I'm Shmacked and Barstool returned to the U to visit during #FSUHateWeek

I'm Shmacked video 2016... lame Chainsmokers video or self-promotion of the U as a seductive, booze-fueled playground (kind of okay with all of us right?)

While I can't admit I'm the biggest fan of I'm Shmacked for various reasons, there is no denying that every time University of Miami is filmed red-handed in our excessive debauchery, it adds an intangible hype to our untouchable school spirit and reaffirms that we Hurricanes are #1 when it comes to having a grand ol' time. FSU Hate week is undeniably the week with the highest energy of the year, in stark contrast to the depressing low-energy of all students camped out in Richter library during finals, which leads me to my next point.....

8. Every time someone has mentioned hooking up in the "Stacks" or has been caught doing so..

Makes sense, but I'm unsure if this was their intention.

Since your freshman year as a baby Cane, you've probably heard of a legendary place called the Stacks that is so apparently hidden and isolated that many daring souls have made it their love nest (yuck, I need a better thesaurus) whether while studying or just because they wanted to defy authority by desecrating common school grounds. This is seemingly a common practice and almost rite of passage as a UM student, so know that this is honestly less than shocking for the UM student body, whom are more daring than most (to put it nicely). By the way, we still haven't forgotten about that viral Snapchat video of the dynamic duo on top of the Frost School (poor Frost)during Finals Week this semester...you know who you are, and we're honestly not surprised by your level of savagery....

GO CANES!!
