20 Signs You Go To University of Missouri-Columbia

Every university claims that their school is the best and most unique one there is, but no school can actually claim that title unless it’s University of Missouri. From the historic columns to Jesse Hall, Fieldhouse to My House, University of Missouri-Columbia is one of a kind in so many ways. Here are 20 signs that you attend University of Missouri-Columbia:

1. At some point, you have discussed how to scale Jesse with your friends while drunk.

2. Seeing half-naked old dudes hacky-sacking in Speaker’s Circle is the norm.

3.  Speaking of, you avoid Speaker’s Circle at all costs.

4. Homecoming is, like, the absolute biggest deal ever.

5. Darty season is almost better than football season.

6. You have witnessed extremely strange things on the quad, from people doing some sort of strange yoga to a large dinosaur running around.

7. Harpos is everything.

8. You get to say that you can go to the best rec center in the country whenever you want (but you rarely ever do).

9. Tiger Stripe ice cream is the move.

10. You have to rub David R. Francis’ nose before every exam or else.

11. Having to deal with disrespectful freshman who don’t know you aren’t supposed to talk when walking under Memorial Union.

12. The Diner is the ultimate place to cure a hangover.

13. You’ve probably come close to getting hit by the Hearnes or Trowbridge shuttle a few too many times.

14. Sandy from Plaza is the nicest lady you will ever meet.

15. Toasted ravioli (AKA t-ravs) are everything.

16. Jayhawks? What’s a Jayhawk?

17. You believe that University of Missouri-Columbia is truly a Southern university.

18. You’ve had to listen to a J-school major b*tch about how much more difficult their program is than everyone else’s.

19. If someone yells, “M-I-Z!” you have to respond, “Z-O-U!” or you’re just not a true Tiger.

20. You swear that Mizzou is the only college you could ever call home.
