Every university claims that their school is the best and most unique one there is, but no school can actually claim that title unless it’s University of Missouri. From the historic columns to Jesse Hall, Fieldhouse to My House, University of Missouri-Columbia is one of a kind in so many ways. Here are 20 signs that you attend University of Missouri-Columbia:
1. At some point, you have discussed how to scale Jesse with your friends while drunk.
2. Seeing half-naked old dudes hacky-sacking in Speaker’s Circle is the norm.
3. Speaking of, you avoid Speaker’s Circle at all costs.
4. Homecoming is, like, the absolute biggest deal ever.

6. You have witnessed extremely strange things on the quad, from people doing some sort of strange yoga to a large dinosaur running around.
