Recent Real Campus Life

**Bye-Bye Winter Break**
For the last couple of years, Ottawa University has combined Thanksgiving break with Christmas break to create an extended break. This lasts from the end of November to early January. To make up for the missed time, school here begins sooner than most other universities and spring break is shorter.

**A Gym Fit for Our Campus**
Ottawa University prides itself on its athletic department. The Braves Athletic Performance Center (BAPC) is proof of that. There are top of the line racks, pulleys, dumbbells, and more. However, the BAPC is not the university’s only gym.
The Hull Center gym is also available for any student to use whether they are a student-athlete looking to put in extra work or a student who isn't involved with campus athletics.

**New Off-Campus Housing Available: Hasty Hall**
Ottawa University welcomed the addition of a new housing option this fall. Hasty Hall, formerly the Days Inn Motel, is located off-campus on South Princeton Street. The new hall is located within walking distance to multiple popular destinations for students including Walmart, lots of restaurants, Starbucks, and Fusion Alley, the local bowling alley

**Staying Healthy as a Student**
It’s fall! The temperature is falling and the flu is on the rise. Fall season means flu season. The last thing we need is to get sick, especially as students and student athletes. Being healthy has two main components, protecting and taking care of your body.

**Wednesday Changes**
If you’ve registered for classes for the fall semester, you’ve noticed a key change: the return of Wednesday classes.

**Easter in Ottawa**
Although Easter is a Christian holiday, it can be celebrated by everyone. Many college kids either can’t afford it or don’t have the availability to travel home for the holiday. No matter how you celebrate, there are ways to make this holiday memorable for you and your friends. If you can’t go home to spend Easter with your family, this list of five ideas may get you in the spirit of the season.

**More Than Our Bodies**
During Madesyn Carrera’s high school career as a female athlete on the men’s football team, a recurring incident took place regarding her status on the team.

**Renting In Ottawa**
It's stressful enough to search for a place to live, but in Ottawa's small environment, it's even more challenging. As both a realtor and a college student looking for a place to call home, Samantha Rankin deals with this challenge. When it comes to Ottawa's limited availability, she shares the struggles she often runs into as a property manager.

Welcome to The Campus's newest category!

The category Real Campus Life was added by the Spring 2022 The Campus Staff.

As a staff our newsroom decided that we felt we needed to do a better job at sharing ALL Ottawa University has to offer. We needed a creative space to share what life on campus truly looks like here at Ottawa University.

We want this to be used as a tool for incoming, current and previous students to have a better idea of what our everyday lives look like.
