Bizzell Memorial Library

The Bizzell Memorial Library is a three-story building located at the University of Oklahoma. It was built in 1928 with a Cherokee gothic architectural style that is unique to buildings on campus. My encounters with this building are usually during finals week every semester, which brings about a negative emotion associated to this building for me. However, I appreciate the structure of this building that allows for students to have a peaceful environment to study in. I also like that some areas in this library were created for engagement among students while other areas are designated quiet spots.

Gaylord Family Memorial Stadium

Gaylord Family Memorial Stadium is a building at the University of Oklahoma that is used for entertainment purposes, such as the sport of football, and it is also where thousands of people come together in support of the team. I have mixed emotions when it comes to my encounter with this building. My feelings are either pure joy or heartbreak, depending upon whether the Sooners win or lose the football game. I have experienced both of these emotions here, however, more moments have been positive than negative. Gaylord Memorial Stadium is a place that creates an exciting and intense atmosphere that is second to none.
