FOUR QUESTIONS about athens/campus from a prospective student!!!!!

hi!!! I'm Vin and i'm heading into college next year. OU is currently my top choice. I'm going to visit for a hotel room and a tour a couple of weeks from now and i have four questions!

one: are there any must-visit spots to go to/see while I'm there?? I already know about the supposed delights of insomnia cookies but I was wondering if there are any special spots on campus or in athens that are cool??

two: i'm debating on bringing a wheelchair because of some chronic pain issues i'm dealing with - is the accessibility okay?? i know it probably is on campus but what about athens itself? i can walk obviously but i do wanna know if it's better for me to not bring a wheelchair.

three: this is kind of less of a major question but i'm trans FTM, pretty visibly so, and I'm wondering how accepting the school is generally. I know they're pretty #woke (policies and those LGBTQ+ specific dorms they had??? have???) but it's a pretty huge part of my life and i don't necessarily wanna be jumped if i do get accepted

four: i know that theres a guaranteed admissions thing on the website with certain requirements - does anyone know if theres a deadline or a specific place (website or irl) im supposed to apply for it??? or is it just another policy??

thank you so much for reading!!!

Is there any place on campus/in Athens where I can access basic art supplies for free?

I don't need much. My marketing class just wants us to make an advertisement without any digital tools, so if there's anywhere I could access, paper, scissors, glue, and markers, that would be perfect?

Fake Weapons on Halloweekend

Thinking about being Lara Croft for Halloween and my boyfriend has air-soft pistols (with the bright orange tip) I could use.

Does anyone think I'll have a problem getting into bars?

Salon Recommendations

I just had a bad experience at the loft and am wondering if there is anywhere in Athens that could just do my hair correctly. Nothing complicated. Any recommendations of where?
