Boston University, like many other schools, has its own little quirks. Here are 10 things every BU student should have done by the end of their collegiate career.
1. Chilling at the BU Beach.
There's no sand, but there's always room to sit or lie down.
2. Dread going to a dining hall because you know what will be served before looking at the menu.
At Marciano Commons, there's always pork loin, fish, a Chinese chicken dish and finished off with a chocolate or sugar cookie and a vegan brownie.
3. Hopping on the BU Bus on a rainy day.
Everyone's jamming themselves in because no one wants to wait 15 minutes for the next one or walk in the rain for 20 minutes.
4. Flipping out at the BU bookstore because they don't accept returns.
The return policy is non-existent, and their books are more expensive than Amazon.
5. Going to a Terrier Hockey game.
Whether you like hockey or not, the amount of school spirit at Agganis Arena at any given game is remarkable.
6. Grabbing food at a food truck.
There are plenty of food carts by Questrom and COM. The trucks have plenty of sweet and savory options and menus regularly rotate.
7. Never stepping on the seal at Marsh Chapel despite not being superstitious
You'd probably graduate even if you stepped on the seal. But just to make sure...
8. Ordering Dominos at 11 pm because you had the late night munchies
We've all had that late night craving.
9. Feeling the shame of not going to FitRec and going to FitRec
I probably should, but I don't really want to...
10. Crying about the cost of tuition
