Palmer fest is one of OU’s biggest fest second to Halloween and it attracts a lot of outsiders. Most of the problems that we experience during the fest are because of outsiders. They come to OU and see the party aspect, and then get the idea that anything goes. They trash our school for one weekend then leave us to deal with the bad reputation. Which is because of what they did. Just because we have these fest doesn’t mean that laws don’t apply. With the switch to semesters next year talk of moving some fest to the fall might not be such a bad idea. I think it will cut down on a lot of the outside visitors and lead to a better environment for OU’s students. As well as let the students still have their annual fest continue, which are now considered a part of OU's heritage. This move might also keep away some of that crazy party school reputation that we have here at OU.
