Ouachita Stories

Over the July 1-3 weekend, Ouachitonians from all over the world took to social media to celebrate #WearOuachitaWeekend! We loved seeing so many posts sharing their love and support while repping all sorts of Ouachita gear!

Wearing Ouachita apparel while you are out and about is one of the easiest ways to give back and help support our university. It is a simple way to show Ouachita's reach and represent us in your personal communities. A big thanks to everyone who participated and who continue to support Ouachita!

Check out some of these posts from this weekend's fun! To see more Tiger pride, search #WearOuachitaWeekend on social media.

There's no better way to celebrate #wearouachitaweekend than with the one and only @arthenticarthur and @nathangayjr, on a rooftop somewhere, reminiscing on #perspectives while at @ouachita. I firmly believe that no one ends up at OBU by accident. Even the greatest plans are sometimes the bumpiest paths. And after seven years have passed since our first perspectives of OBU were realized, it still remains - there is no other place like Ouachita. ? -- #ouachita #ouachitabaptist #ouachitabaptistuniversity #ouachitonian #ouachitonians #tigersforlife #obu #obutigers #arkansas #arkansaslife #littlerock #littlerocklife #littlerockarkansas

Happy #wearouachitaweekend I find it impressive that I left at 2:30 for a lake day and came back at 5:45 soaking wet without dipping a single toe in the water. I guess that's what happens when you go to 4 locations because the rest of them are closed or cost money and a tropical storm hits right as you finish filling up your inner-tube and taking the pic you are looking at right now
