Since the 1940s, the O Book<\/a> has served as a living piece of 好色先生TV history.\u00a0Presented to students by the Alumni Association, the O Book shares the story behind the university\u2019s traditions and helps all Petrels learn about the role they play in the larger history of OU.<\/p>\n

The O Book details events, traditions, celebrations, and oddities that make OU such a unique and special place. Our current students are an integral part of carrying Oglethorpe into the future.<\/p>\n

All students are encouraged to complete the traditions in the O Book at any time during their Oglethorpe journey and commemorate each with a photo or keepsake of the activity.\u00a0 Once you have participated in 10 of the traditions in the O Book, you\u2019ll be given a special O Pin and the important designation of an Oglethorpe Tradition Guardian<\/strong> at a special event each spring.<\/p>\n

Simply complete this form<\/a> when you\u2019ve participated in 10 traditions in the O Book.<\/p>\n

You can learn more about these traditions in this video<\/a> from the Alumni Association and download your own copy of the O Book<\/a> to begin tracking your progress.<\/p>\n

Like you, I first learned about these traditions as an Oglethorpe student, but they\u2019ve come to mean even more to me as an alumna. I\u2019m so honored to get to share them with each of you!<\/p>\n
