10 People At Virginia Tech You Always Run Into

If you’re a student at Virginia Tech, you’ll see an array of faces in the university’s crowd of 31,000 undergraduates. Sometimes all it takes is one interaction to make your day – or give you a terrible flashback to that time your face-planted in front of Agnew Hall. From frat stars to your freshman year RA, here are the 10 other types of people at Virginia Tech you will always run into.

1. Cadets.

Usually surrounded by other cadets all in uniform. #thecadeteffect

2. A sorority girl wearing her letters.

Usually complete with a baseball cap and iced coffee.

 

3. Someone who just got out of bed and is still wearing their pajamas/sweats that they slept in.

(You do you, but we can totally smell you from here.)

4. Someone who is hungover from the night before.

Maybe its a frat boy or a freshman who just experienced their first college party, but chances are they just showed up late to lecture.

5. Frank Beamer just casually walking around campus.

It’s like seeing a dog walk on it’s hind legs.

6. THE HOKIEBIRD <3

Seeing our turkey-like mascot is always nothing short of a wonderful experience. You might just get starstruck.

7. People you don’t want to see.

That one night stand? That girl you got into a fight with? Your ex? For such a large school, you’re sure to run into people you want to avoid.

8. Voter Registrars.

Yes, I’m registered to vote. Yes, you’ve asked me this.

9. People handing out free stuff.

(Sign up for an email list to get those free popsicles or candy on your way to class!)

10. Hokies.

From opening up doors for you, to asking if you need help carrying your bags, Hokies are some of the most friendly and caring people you’ll ever meet. And part of the reason why everyone loves to call Blacksburg their home away from home.
