We arrived in Oxford around 11:30 after the 2.5 hour drive. We went on the campus tour before attending the official “Make it Miami” day. The campus really is beautiful and all the buildings have the same architecture (even the parking garages).
After the presentation, we attended the Farmer’s School of Business presentation and had a really nice conversation with the Economics Professor and the Supply Chain Management Professor and then got a tour of the business school.
We made our way back across campus and toured the Rec center before heading uptown for dinner at Mac and Joe’s (which is not a place I would have gone in had it not been recommended by the professor). We then attended the hockey game and shockingly, saw the RedHawks beat Omaha! It was a fun game and D-man was happy we went.
I then dropped D-man uptown to meet a former Monarch High student to chat about life at Miami. The bar scene was popping uptown! I picked D-man up around midnight and we are watching the USA vs. Canada hockey game.
They definitely tout the more individual education you will get here at Miami vs. Indiana or Purdue. The courses here are taught by the professors and the classes are going to be much smaller. And, they still have D1 sports (albeit sports are much less important on this campus vs. Indiana and Purdue).
Love and Honor is the phrase they use here at Miami University. May D-Man love wherever he goes and honor his heart in his choice.
