You know you're a seasoned Auburn student when ...

You are told something is in room 1234, and you automatically think, "First floor, second quadrant, room 34."

Remember at Camp War Eagle being taught how to navigate Haley Center? If you forgot (or were never properly taught), let me give you a refresher.

The first number tells you what floor the room is on.

The second number tells you what quadrant the room is located. And how do you know where the quadrants are?
  • 1: Faces Jordan-Hare Stadium (because Football is most important)
  • 2: Faces the library (because class is second)
  • 3: Faces Foy (because a) it has three letters or b) it is where your friends are and friends are third most important)
  • 4: I don't remember the saying for this quadrant, but since I went to Auburn, I am smart enough to know how the process of elimination works :)
  • If the number is 0, then the room is located in the center of the building.
The final numbers are just the room number.

Y'all, this is so ingrained to me that I got the first part of the post right without thinking, but when I started in on the steps, I realized I had steps 1 and 2 mixed up.
