Acronyms are a part of daily life here at Taylor. While we've adapted to the culture and use them frequently, you may have some questions. What is the best way to use these acronyms and have you been using them wrongly during your whole Taylor career? We're here to relieve your acronym insecurities.
1. KSAC: Kesler Student Activities Center
- One of the few buildings on campus named after a living person.
- The origin of all those people who come to the Dining Commons wearing athletic clothes so you know they worked out.
- Hey man, want to go to the KSAC and pump some iron before the pick-a-date?
- Just so we go straight to the DC afterwards so people see our blood, sweat and tears.
- A term used by many students who are tired of the "talking" phase of a relationship and ready to put a label on it-or cut off all connection.
- An activity that is more heavily engaged in Fall and Spring during freshmen frenzy and senior scramble.
- We've been hanging out every day for the past two months and sometimes we spend all night at IHOP instead of sleeping. But it's okay because I like pancakes and I like you . . . What are we?
- Are we having a DTR? I'd rather continue what we've got going on-without "definition."
- The road surrounding campus.
- Often used in conjunction with the phrase "DTR".
- Want to go for a stroll on the loop? Maybe stop by Handy Andy for the finale?
- Are you trying to have a DTR with me?!
- A term used to describe someone of the opposite gender that you find attractive from a distance.
- Someone you don't know at all but who you've already decided to marry-until you actually get to know them.
- Who is your new VC?
- You know the guy that's always putting his dishes on the conveyer belt, with really blonde hair and eyes and a face? I stabbed him with a fork once and it was so embarrassing, but I think he's always staring at me. Do you think he knows who I am? Would our kids be cute?
- A universal term in the English language that is displayed way too much on Taylor's campus.
- Something many Taylor men partake in with their wingmates.
- Want to cuddle, man?
- Yeah, man. I'm all about PDA. I want everyone to know I care.
- a. A memorial to our favorite place on campus for crafty and printing needs, formerly located in Reade.
- b. The current, temporary location of Student Development and the Counseling Center.
- Want to go to the ETC and make a banner for our open house?
- It's the counseling center now. But maybe we should go there anyway. I'm having a hard time adjusting to the change.
- I got you.
