The University of Maine, also known as UMaine and Maine, is a public research university located in Orono, Maine. If you're from the area, you probably know a lot about the institution. Even if you're not, you probably have heard of UMaine's hockey team, or simply know it's Maine's premier state university.
But no one knows UMaine like its student. And no students know the school better than seniors. After surviving four years in Orono, a special expertise comes with the territory.
These are 12 signs you're a UMaine senior:
1. You visit the Bear Brew at least once a week every Thursday, if not on Wednesdays too. The bouncers don't even check your ID anymore.
2. You got so excited when OHOP put in a bar.
3. You usually only party at the bars now, and rarely bother with frat and house parties.
4. Roost Rum Buckets for days.
5. It's about time Orono got a decent local coffee shop.
6. You're already looking forward to Maine Day, but then realize that means you're almost graduated.
7. You're mad that Orono just now got a trampoline park.
8. You can't believe that they changed the MaineCard design.
9. You love tailgating at football games, and finally being allowed to.
10. Freshmen will never know that the tiny parking lot next to Beta used to be Kappa Sig.
11. Freshmen will also never know that Pi Kappa Phi used to be PIKE.
12. You are sick of all the food options in town, but you still frequent them way too often anyway, like OHOP Mondays (and weekends) and Fam Dog brunch.
13. You know that this will be the college of our hearts always!
