With your friends, you choose how to spend your free time. Whether it includes checking out local bars, staying in and studying at B.D. Owens Library or cheering on the Bearcats in the Greenhouse.

Just like the Choose Your Own Adventure books from your childhood, it ' s your choice which path you will take. It ' s time to create yours.
