Ever wonder which building is the oldest on campus? From the names alone, Old Main would be a good guess (and a correct one).

Wintertime Activities in Laramie
Is the weekend rapidly approaching and you’re wondering what to do? While Laramie may seem like a little town, it has plenty going on.

Prominent Statues in Laramie – Our Top 5
Whether you know it or not, Laramie is dotted with various statues. They often go unnoticed, hidden beneath tall pines or sandstone buildings.
