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:
“Many a poor sore-eyed student that I have heard of would grow faster, both intellectually and physically, if, instead of sitting up so very late, he honestly slumbered a fool’s allowance.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I feel the desire to be with you all the time. Oh, an occasional absence of a week or two is a good thing to give one the happiness of meeting again, but this living apart is in all ways bad. We have had our share of separate life during the four years of war. There is nothing in the small ambition of Congressional life, or in the gratified vanity which it sometimes affords, to compensate for separation from you. We must manage to live together hereafter. I can’t stand this, and will not.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
