Student Life
The majority of students live on campus, in one of USAO's two housing options: Sparks Hall and Lawson Court. The former is traditional dormitory style living and the latter is apartment style living available to all students. Affordability, modern renovations, and other amenities have made these options popular among students of all levels.
Students participate in roughly fifty organizations ranging from political advocacy groups to student government. They are also served by the University's century-old newspaper "The Trend." A few sororities and fraternities do operate on campus, along with several honor groups. The Student Government and Student Activities Board plan events for all students and guests throughout the year, including the annual "Droverstock" art and music festival.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or life:
“The student of Nature wonders the more and is astonished the less, the more conversant he becomes with her operations; but of all the perennial miracles she offers to his inspection, perhaps the most worthy of admiration is the development of a plant or of an animal from its embryo.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
“Without poets, without artists, men would soon weary of nature’s monotony. The sublime idea men have of the universe would collapse with dizzying speed. The order which we find in nature, and which is only an effect of art, would at once vanish. Everything would break up in chaos. There would be no seasons, no civilization, no thought, no humanity; even life would give way, and the impotent void would reign everywhere.”
—Guillaume Apollinaire (1880–1918)
