PSA: Less Than One Month Until Bobcats Are Back Home
Zach Woods

As I currently type this, it is exactly one month from the first day of syllabus week for Ohio University students, and you know what that means? It’s officially less than one month until everyone will be back in the promise land that is Athens, Ohio. If you weren’t already setting your countdown apps, crossing out the days on your calendar, and beginning to pack… now is the time!

Now that we have OU on the brain, here are some reminders of exactly what is waiting for us when we come back. And if you’re going to be a freshman this fall, then here is exactly what you have to look forward to for the next four years.

If you have to study and exercise, at least you get to be here:

Emeriti Park

The 6th and 7th floor of Alden

College Green

The ARC

Ping

Bong Hill

Strouds

Bike Trail


FOOD:

Dining Halls -- mainly Nelson (free!!!)

Big Mama's

GoodFellas (my mouth is watering...)

Bagel Street Deli (sweet Jesus, it's Heaven)

Miller's Chicken (best chicken you'll ever have!)

USD (heaven's twin sibling)

Whit's


Souvlaki's

O'Betty's

Gran Ran(chero)

Ginger

DP Dough (open all the time!)


COFFEE:

Front Room

Night Life:

BONUSES for fall:

Amongst all the physical aspects, we are most excited to get back to our friends and all the other Bobcats. The campus is beautiful, and the events are the best, but the vibes when everyone comes hOUme are incomparable.

Excited yet?

Get ready, Athens -- because Bobcat fam is coming home.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
