Homes of an art student: home, dorm, Seigfred Hall

13 Reasons Why Ohio University Art Students Love Seigfred Hall
wiki

Just about every art major at Ohio University can call Seigfred their other home.

1. Homework

If you are unable to study or do homework in your dorm room, like me, Seigfred's art studios are the perfect places to get work done. They offer very little distractions and if your homework is art related, you have the tools around you to get it done.

2. Glidden Hall

The music hall is next to the art hall, which definitely has its perks. With taking the elevator to avoid Jeff Hill or being able to hear music from outside the building, this added bonus is worthwhile.

3. Apples on the front desk

This is pretty self-explanatory, the office workers are so sweet.

4, Graffiti mystery floor

If you take the staircase labeled "Fourth Floor Only" all the way down, you might be surprised by what you find. An eerie hallway with graffiti all over is now on your bucket list to see if you have not already.

5. Posters

Students are always making posters for events, clubs, and other fun activities so you are always up to date by simply walking to class.

6. Good drinking fountain

The water fountain by the girl's bathroom on the fifth floor has very refreshing water. Try it before you disagree.

7. Open 24 hours

Us, crazy, nocturnal, art students take Seigfred's 24-hour schedule for granted. However, as one of the only buildings on campus with this policy, I am forever grateful.

8. Mural

Outside of Seigfred, there is a gorgeous mural that is hard to not admire. Even though it may look confusing, you can not deny its beauty.

9. Gallery

One of the first things you see as you walk through the building is an art gallery. The hours are relatively convenient so it is always fun to go in and see what everyone is up to.

10. Vending machines

Being a hungry art student penalizes your work ethic. These vending machines have variety and are accessible.

11. Graffiti wall outside

If you are up for a little walk through the grass, underneath Glidden there is a wide, low-ceiling area with various graffiti and even a few chairs. While only slightly creepy, this is a must-see for any art student.

12. Resources

Seigfred has a multitude of resources. Such as connections to Alumni that can get you possible internships, spaces for installation and or galleries of your own creation, and a library. There is also the Create Space located in Putnam Hall that gives access to things such as rentable film equipment and 3D printers.

13. People

I have never seen such a vast diversity of people until I got to college. Seigfred especially takes all kinds. Rather than seeing the "standard college student", Seigfred gives you access to people that are very different from you.

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.

Power of Love Letters

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.
