Mississippi State University
Mark Twain once said, "To understand the world, you must understand a place like Mississippi."

Anybody who has even visited Mississippi State knows that Mississippi State is a unique place and has lots of special places that MSU one of a kind. Here are just twenty-six (out of very many) of those special places, events, things, and more listed from A-Z that make Starkville, Mississippi a special place and where we wanted to spend the best four (or maybe more) years of our lives.

Allen Hall

Having a class here is a right of passage.

Baseball

It's kind of a big deal.

Cowbell

Also known as, "The only perscription."

Davis Wade Stadium

Also known as "The loudest stadium," and yes we earned that title.

Egg Bowl

Veruca Salt and Mississippi State have one thing in common, we both just really want that Golden Egg.

Fraternity Row

So many memories.

Greek Bus

The place where you will see at least one person that you will recognize.

Humphrey Couselium

"Basketball is my favorite sport. I love the way they dribble up and down the court..."

Insomnia Cookies

When you cannot sleep, the logical thing is to get cookies delivered to your door, right?

Junction

The hardest place to find your friends.

KFC

Yes, we actually have one of these in Starkville.

Left Field Longue

It was the best of times until the renovations took our beloved longue away.

McCool Hall

If you haven't posted a Snapchat story of yourself studying late at night in this building then do you really go to Mississippi State?

Nine Two Nine

If you have not posted an Instagram story of you drinking coffee and studying here then do you actually go to Mississippi State?

Old Main Academic Center

The newest and nicest building at Mississippi State.

Parking Services

It's a nice feeling to know that even Nick Fitzgerald has trouble parking just like the rest of it.


Quidditch

Yes, we offer a Quidditch class for freshman. We are that cool.

Rick's Cafe

So many date parties, so many swaps, so many concerts, so much fun.

Super Bulldog Weekend

Also known as the greatest weekend of the year.

The Cotton District

The place that makes you feel like you're in Europe instead of Mississippi.

U.S. Rocks

If you haven't seen these guys perform are you even a college student?

(The) Veranda

The place we wish we could afford.

Women's Basketball

Let's give it up for these ladies!

XC

Cross country, their sport is your sport's punishment.

Youth Camps

Mississippi State not only provides an educational opportunity for college students but for elementary, middle school and high-school students as well.

Zacharias Village

It is the gem of North Zone.

If their were more letters in the alphabet I am sure Mississippi State would have a person, place or thing for that.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
