The Bizzell Memorial Library has had a huge impact on my college life. I really like the Cherokee Gothic architecture around campus, especially with this library. It has made my walk to class more enjoyable due to the beauty of the buildings. The architecture itself on this campus was a major factor in my decision of choosing OU as my undergraduate college. Layton Hicks & Forsyth were the architects who built this and I really admire their work. There have been countless times I’ve gone in here and have been productive studying for exams. This building really brightens up the atmosphere around campus and I believe it is the central and most important building in Norman besides maybe the football stadium. The Great Reading Room is one of my favorite rooms in this building and I continue to go here and admire this structure as long as I am on campus.
