OSU campus

[Autzen Powers]

So I was on the OSU campus for work on Friday and there was all this greek action going on. Tons of guys lined up in the MU holding Beavers T-shirts. I gathered it was a greek thing with all the hootin' and hollerin', chanting and clapping - and greek T-shirts.

When I got home my husband (who went to OSU for a year) told me that was an event called "Jump" where, as a test of faith, the guys who are rushing a Fraternity run down the MU stairs and jump (like off a stage) into a pit of guys and they catch you. Good times! It was fun being there....and MY OH MY how polite these guys were to me. They all said "excuse me" as I tried to snake through them and they would hold the door open for me, etc. Just wanted to give some props to the students at OSU.

As a side: That's one of the reasons I love the Beavs - is because my husband was one at one point- that and because when UO went to the Rose Bowl about 10 yrs ago, Beaver fans were there with signs that said "Beaver Backers, Backing the Quackers".

did you just recently get married? You kept saying husband instead of boyfriend like you usually do...

yeah, after 9 years, we finally took the plunge. It seemed to be a safe bet at this point.
