16 Things all BU Students Know:
1. Whether you call it Shelton or Kilachand Hall, you know the fourth floor is haunted by the ghost of Eugene O’Neil
2. If you walk across the BU seal in Marsh Plaza, there’s no way you’ll graduate in four years
Sure, you may graduate early, but is it worth risking?
3. No School Has Better Food...
4... Or Stronger Password Requirements
5. Scarlet is an entirely different color than plain ol’ “red”
6. You know more acronyms than you’ll ever use again in your life: COM, CGS, CAS, GSU, SAO, DOS, CSC, HTC...the list goes on!
7. In winter, the BU Bridge may just be the windiest place on the planet
8. T. Anthony’s is, hands-down, the best college pizza shop in the city
9. If you’re lost, the Citgo Sign will guide you home
10. You may never live anywhere as nice as StuVi again
11. The Beanpot is the best college sporting event in the city
BU has won more titles than any other school (30 to be exact).
12. You can survive for days at a time without leaving Warren Towers
Between the laundry rooms, dining hall, study lounges and common rooms, Warren makes the outdoors seem overrated.
13. The BU “Beach” isn’t a beach at all
But the sounds of the cars passing on Storrow Drive can be eerily calming.
14. You’ll never have to walk more than 0.2 miles to get to the T
From Blandford to Babcock, the B line is essentially the “BU Line.”
15. There’s no other place where you can meet so many people from all over the planet
16. Having a traditional campus is overrated when the city of Boston is at your fingertips
