What Your Favorite Longwood Building Says About You

Longwood University, founded in 1839, is rich in history and school spirit. With over 30 diverse buildings (and still expanding), each student is destined to fall in love with at least one. Whether it's in the grand Rotunda of Ruffner Hall, the soft golden velvet seats of Jarman Auditorium, the inviting food court in the Lankford Student Union, or the state-of-the-art Health and Fitness Center, there's something for everyone on campus to enjoy and admire. Everyone has that special spot that they love to hang out, do homework, or take some alone time in, and here is what your favorite building on campus says about you.

Greenwood Library

You're extremely serious about your studies and the closer you are to the resources, the better you will study and learn. It is also possible that you are required to spend time in the library for your Greek organization or sports team. Or, if you are like me, you just like to people watch on Brock Commons from the comfort of the children's literature section.

Bedford Hall

You are artsy and you know it. Lucky you, you have one of the nicest buildings on campus to learn in! (Also, the only building in which you can sunbathe).

Hull Education Center

Unless you're an education major, there's a good chance that you've never been in this building. If this is your favorite building, you're definitely an education major, which makes you one of the most caring and patient people on this campus. Go you!

Hiner Hall

If your favorite building is Hiner, you don't need a fancy new building to be happy. It's about the little things in life, and the swivel seats in Hiner 201 and 203 are enough to satisfy you.

Willett Hall

You LIVE for basketball season and Lancer Pants is probably your #ManCrushMonday every week. You might even have a countdown to basketball season on your calendar, and you are most definitely a Lancer Lunatic.

Wygal Hall

You love music and your appreciation for the finer things in life are far more advanced than many others. You log many hours in this building, which increases your love for the... less than new building.

Health and Fitness Center

One of the most popular spots on campus, you are all about being seen. If people can see you while you're flexing with free weights, even better. Fitness is very important to you, too.

French Hall

If your favorite building is French, you have big dreams outside of the tiny town of Farmville. Everything is an opportunity to build your resume and get one step closer to that goal of being in broadcasting. Those who aren't communications majors are truly missing out on the beauty that is French's million dollar studio.

Ruffner Hall

You fully appreciate the history of Longwood University and feel spiritually connected to Joanie on the Stone-y. You could sit around the Rotunda for hours, doing homework or just chatting with the people around you. There's also a good chance that you're a legacy student.


It's hard not to love Longwood University, and the amazing architecture and stories that go with it just add to the admiration that students and alumni feel. Which is your favorite building?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
