Meet George: The Stray Cat Who Stole Our University's Heart (and Couch)

By A Friend • February 8, 2025

Meet George, the true ruler of our university. He’s a stray, but if you ask the students, he’s been here longer than some professors. No one knows exactly when he showed up, but at some point, George decided that our campus was his home.

He spends most of his days lounging around, moving from one cozy nap spot to another, completely unbothered by the chaos of university life. His favorite place? A couch in our building, where he sleeps like he’s paying rent.

George is loved by everyone — students, staff, and faculty. He gets plenty of attention, lots of pets, and possibly more honorary degrees than any of us. He even has his own Instagram because of course he does.

Enjoy George in all his academic glory!
