The ABCs of Stony Brook University

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Stony Brook chapter.
Academic Mall Fountain
 
(A distinctive sign it’s starting to get nice out!)
 
Billy Joel
 
(Remember when he gave a speech at graduation last year?)
 
Campus Recreation Center
 
(Could we ask for a more beautiful place to work out?)
Dorming
 
(May the odds be ever in your favor)
 
Express Bus
 
(Because walking to and from South P is just not going to happen.)
 
Frey Hall
 
(A great place to sit for lecture, if that’s even possible.)
 
Girls’ Bathroom in the Engineering building.
 
(What other bathroom’s do you know with couches?)
 
Her Campus Stony Brook
 
(Duh)
 
Island Federal Credit Arena
 
(Home of our Championship Basketball Team)
 
Javits Lecture Hall
 
(Admit it we’ve all been in a classroom that holds 500 kids but only about 50 show up.)
 
K
 
(Because you know your professors have emailed you back that once or twice.)
 
Lavalle Stadium
 
(Where else would we want to spend our weekends during the Fall?)
 
Melville Library
 
(Possibly one of the most confusing buildings on campus to navigate through.)
 
Notable Alumni
 
(Joy Behar the Comedian, Will Tye the Football player, Christine Goerke the Grammy-winning singer, to name a few.)
 
Orientation
 
(A time when we all were just baby Seawolves.)
 
Parking Passes
 
(We all know how impossible it is to get a pass to park on campus.)
 
Quads
 
(Because which quad you’re in does define whether or not you get to go take a midday nap.) 
 
Roth Regatta
 
(Once a year we all go aboard Ductape and cardboard boats and try and race across a pond.)
 
Staller Steps
 
(What’s better than sitting on the steps during campus lifetime.)
 
Together We Transform
 
(Shout out to the dedicated Student-Athletes on this campus)
 
Union
 
(Sad to see it go, but love to watch it leave.)
 
Valedictorians
(Chances are you meet a bunch of students who were there high school’s Valedictorian)
 
What’s a Seawolf?
 
(I’m a Seawolf!)
 
X-Ray
 
(Attempting to count the number of Pre-Med students? Goodluck)
Yik-Yak
 
(How else would you keep up with the latest things happening on campus?)
 
Zombies Versus Humans
 
(That time a year when you can see people running around with Nerf Guns and it’s totally normal.)
