The best thing about the University of Houston is the tutoring and working environments. There are free tutoring opportunities for all students at two separate buildings on campus that are available daily. This really helps when the school work is getting more challenging and demanding. The working environments are also extremely helpful. The library has selective areas where students who need the quiet environment can study. The fountain area located behind the library is also a great place to study or relax because it is usually quiet and peaceful with a grass area and benches.

The most unique thing about my campus is that everywhere you go, there is UH spirit. The buses are named the "Cougar Line". The signs for the buildings are red, even some of the buildings are red like their roofs, etc. Moreover, our squirrels are part of the UH spirit as well. Our squirrels are definitely not shy, and they are extremely comfortable with people around. Sometimes, they even eat corn nuts right out of your hand! There is even a Facebook page for our squirrels.
