While spending some time back home can be fun, there are so
many reasons that you are itching to back on campus. You might not be ready to
make the climb up Bascom or drop a few hundred dollars on textbooks, but those
just happen to come along with the many benefits of being back in town.
1.This is where a lot of your friends are now
2. The Terrace
With the Terrace closing on September 1st for
construction, the first thing you probably wanted to do was get back and soak up
as much sun as you could on those orange, yellow, and green chairs. It’s too
bad that these last couple weeks of summer feel more like early October than
late August. Wisconsin summers are short enough, couldn’t we have a little more
sunshine?
3. You get to deck out your new place
It’s time to decide which posters make the cut. And who
could forget about the Christmas lights?
4. Babcock Ice Cream
I scream, you scream, we all scream for Babcock.
5. State Street
Find someone to let you into the Hub. Just kidding—no, but really. Also while you are there, stop in the brand new and vibrant Colectivo. There are so many things to do and places to eat on State Street. Sure we have a Wendy’s and an Urban Outfitters, but you have to enjoy some of the shops and restaurants that are unique to State Street, too!
6. Badger Football games
Who wouldn’t be pumped to back in the sea of red? Badgers
have some of the best school spirit around, and we cannot wait to be back cheering on our team!
7. Greenbush Donuts
It’s only $1 for heavenly goodness.
8. Ian’s Pizza
Late night pizza? Count me in.
9. Free movies
Miss the free movies on the Terrace throughout the summer?
Well, there are still plenty of free screenings of pretty recent movies at the
Marquee in Union South frequently. Don’t forget to check out what is playing
through WUD Films!
10. Picnic Point
Reserve a spot at Picnic Point, and enjoy the beautiful
nature by Lake Mendota before it gets too cold!
11. Lake Mendota
Speaking of the wonderful Lake Mendota, there are so many
great water activities to do through Hoofers. Whether you want to learn to sail
or just admire the water, having this great lake right on campus is definitely
one of ours school’s many allures.
12. Napping on Bascom Hill
No one actually likes to climb Bascom, but when it’s just
warm enough to soak up the sun, it is a great place to be. There are plenty of
people napping, reading, studying, or just hanging out on one of the most
recognizable spots on campus.
Welcome back, Badgers!
