longhorn fan:skeptical::skeptical:
but yes welcome aboard the cyclone tradition is a great one!! you will be a clone in no time!!!
Ditto. Also, realize that you'll start feeling the cold long before we Iowa natives -- probably about the end of August. The cold will last until the first week in May.
Shhhh don't tell him about winter or he'll never go to ISU:no:
As for cold it's still cold up there for us Texans! 70 in the day is nice, but those 50s at night are gonna suck.... I'll be back for a few days and not looking forward to the night temps. Just like my mid90s and lows in the 70s :notworthy:
That's funny. I lived in Ames my whole life and moved to Austin two years ago after graduating from ISU.
Ames has its charms, and it is a nice place to live, but taken as a whole, I think you'll find that Austin >>> Ames.
Also, it gets super damn cold in the winter. The worst of Austin's "winter" = Ames' October and March.
architecture, good luck. my roommate is in architecture and spends more time working on projects than sleeping. i barely saw him this semester and hes pulled many all nighters. have fun
I hate to be this guy but you need to stay a longhorn fan but still root like hell for the Cyclones and make us your backup option. I sometimes wish I could have grown up a Sooner or Longhorn just so I could experience a ton of winning. You get to have all the joy of being a longhorn fan and having all the fun being a Clone fan.
Yeah, my last visit to Iowa St. was for the "visit iowa st" the university put on for a Saturday in April. It was 70-80 degrees in Austin and when we landed in Des Moines it was 30 degrees and it just happened to snow the next day when we were touring the campus. Ha.
And about architecture; I'm aware of the time that's devoted to the degree. The thing I worry about is getting into the program my sophomore year.
I plan on getting season tickets to both football and basketball if at all possible. I'd very much like to be there for the games against Iowa(of which my mom is a graduate
) and Oklahoma St.

Any way you can trade moms? :wink:
By the way, that 30 you're talking about...that's hot for us in January and February....-30 is approached more often than 30 is. :biglaugh:

Welcome to the ISU family - but don't let anyone scare you about the architecture school. One of the best public arch programs around. UT has a pretty great one too - what made you choose between the two? You will put in a lot of time at studio - it's just how it is. Always be producing - sometimes I felt the profs were just putting a war of attrition upon us, to see who washes out (250 in "pre" arch my first year, only ~55 when I graduated. But the 5 yrs in program goes by fast... and I loved it, and now live in Dallas doing architecture (good time to be an arch student, terrible time to be an actual architect by the way!!!).
The weather will shock you, true, but everything else is pretty nice.

This bolded part needs to be addressed. Everybody in the college of design is in "pre" arch their first year. Then the number gets trimmed down to about 20-50 per program. Landscape Arch, Arch, Interior, CRP... So in the end, it isn't as selective as they make it sound.
