Being an engineering student in the 90's with a hectic class schedule I didn't have time to smell the roses.  I do recall the jail style concrete block dorms and stepping on the sand burrs while trekking across campus. It's amazing to see the transformation of the campus over the years, there is so much more elaborate and well laid out landscaping plus all the new buldings and more construction in progress.  Makes me proud of my USF heritage.

I graduated BS civil engineering  in 1997

the landscaping and trees in the center of campus weren't there when i was working on my degrees.  it was the wide sidewalks and grass only.  there was 'music on the lawn' during the week in the middle of the afternoon, i remember stopping and laying down in the lawn listening to some random band play hendrix for a while.

Nah, I always get a rental for the two days. Now that my hair is grey I slide down low and pretend I am a snow bird. 

Do you also drive in the passing lane doing 10 MPH under the speed limit?  Then you would have it nailed.

one of main advantages of  an OCS ,  Give people a reason to experience and come back to campus and reconnect

If you want to visit campus, then visit campus.

My family and I were in town last weekend and went to the Beef's to eat and watch the game.  I thought there would be more students for an away game. The students in there cheered.  Then I got my bill and realized why the students don't go there.  Not friendly for a student budget!!

Campus was beautiful, though!

Electrical engineering ‘92. 

And happened to be on campus yesterday as well with my son as he met with an advisor before he starts going there in the spring.

So many buildings it’s hard to find a place to throw a frisbee anymore!

you do not understand.   it is about the "shared experience"  that a football game bring and the shared memories being on campus tailgating

I understand what you're saying.  I just think that if one wants to visit the campus, they can just go.
