Football Is God Here, but Nothing Else.

People are nuts for the football team. Starting fall quarter, everything revolves around football and business is at an almost standstill during Saturday games. It makes sense, because Oregon has the best football team in the PAC-10 and one of the best college football teams in the country. The team also has a lot of money, so student athletes have very nice facilities. The games are fun and are packed every time. It's pretty hard to get tickets now that it's an online ticket claim thing. However, when the football season is over, the rest of the year, it's like, "eh."

Underage Fun

The school is constantly having events and parties that are open to everyone. In a few days there is a BCS championship game watch party and thousands of people will be there. I think there's a lot to be afford. There is always the option of a house party as well.

Good Variety of Foods

I think the campus does a great job of balancing the needs of the students. There are normal chains to eat at on and near campus, and several that are vegetarian friendly. They have composting set up, which I appreciate. The best place to eat on campus would be Holy Cow, a local vegetarian food place that is really tasty.
