The ABC’s Of The University Of Michigan
MGoBlue

My favorite place in the world has so much to offer! I thought it would be hard to think of something for every letter, but it was actually hard to choose just one.

A– Ann Arbor

Ranked the best college town in the country for a reason!

B– Big House

No better or bigger place to experience the best gamedays of all time. And we get to graduate there too!

C– Cube

Just a big cube but until you spin it, you don’t get it

D– Diag

The most beloved cut-through to classes! It is always entertaining to see what's going on near the diag. But don’t step on the M or you will fail your first blue book exam

E– Eating Pizza House

If you haven't had feta bread from pizza house do you even go to the University of Michigan?

F– FOOTBALL

Pretty self-explanatory but uh yea hail to the victors we are the best! Go Blue always baby.

G– Graffiti Alley

A super cool place off State Street to check out the newest art

H– Hatcher

The quiet library. Where people are ~more~ productive

I– Insomnia

So dangerously delicious and they deliver all across campus

J– Jim Harbaugh

The man, the myth, the legend. We trust him with our team and lives.

K– Kickass academics

Not ranked the number one public university for nothing! We work hard and play hard.

L– Law quad

Fun to play frisbee in the fall and spring and slightly spooky to walk through at night in winter. But always gorgeous.

M– Michigan Time

The most amazing concept for the late birds. 10 extra minutes to get to class– what could be better?

N– North Campus

A whole bus ride away and filled with freshman, engineers, and art majors. But a serene place where you see tons of wildlife!

O– Ohio sucks

They never really win if you know what I mean

P– Painting the rock

A classic tradition that all of us have done at least once

Q– Quadrangle

North, south, east, west quad; all lovely dorms on central campus, if you get so lucky. Otherwise, Markley is at least ~social~

R– Rossholes

While it is mostly a stereotype, if you see someone in a suit with a stick up their butt, they're probably in Ross studying business

S– State Street

The street that's truly got it all. Walgreens, Chipotle, Starbucks, a movie theater, CVS, Grilled Cheesery and more

T– Tailgates

No one throws them better. Tailgate szn is the best szn.

U– Ugli

The 24-hour library that everyone spends so much time in. It becomes a love-hate kind of thing.

V– Very long winter

No one can prep you for the winters here they are basically 6 months and it is just cold, windy and gray

W– Walking in the Arb

Nothing like the serene nature of the Arb. A place to escape and take a break.

X– Xtracurriculars

Michigan has more than anywhere else. Want to join or get involved in something? We got it!

Y– Yost Arena

Where the hockey team plays and student enjoy more high end sporting events! Just a small secret: hockey games have the best cheers.

Z– Zingermans

The absolutely delicious and famous sandwich place that even Obama loves.


As you can see the University of Michigan has all of this to offer and more. Michigan is the perfect place to go to school and b a part of something greater than any of us.

This video always hits me with the feels so I thought I would attach it at the bottom of this article for anyone who made it this far.

My favorite letter of the alphabet is M and here is why:

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

2024
Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
