- Moet nie verwar word met dit nie Bowling Green, 'n stad in Kentucky.
Downtown Bowling Green op die kruising van Wooster en Main. Hierdie gebied word swaar verhandel deur voetgangers en motoriste.
Bowling Green is 'n klein universiteitsdorpie in Noordwes-Ohio ongeveer 48 km suid van die Michigan grens. Bowling Green is omring deur kilometers plat landbougrond en is veral bekend vir sy openbare universiteit, Bowling Green State University (BGSU), en sy nasionale trekkergeleentheid. Plaaslike inwoners verkort Bowling Green dikwels tot BG - uitgespreek "Bee Gee".
Verstaan
Bowling Green is hoofsaaklik 'n universiteitsdorp. Bowling Green State University is bekend vir sy opleiding, musiek, en lugvaartprogramme. As gevolg hiervan het baie geleenthede 'n opvoedkundige inslag, is musiek en kuns gewild in die stad, en helder dae word gekenmerk met gereelde vlieëniers van skroef-aangedrewe vliegtuie.
Die stad funksioneer ook as die setel van die provinsie en die grootste stad van Wood County, Ohio. Die enigste ander groot stad in die provinsie is die voorstad van Toledo Perrysburg. Dit lê op die rand van die Toledo Metropolitaanse gebied en maak voorsiening vir plaaslike inwoners in nabygeleë dorpe en plase deur winkels, opvoeding en vermaak aan te bied, net soos die stad Findlay 48 km na die suide. As gevolg hiervan is Bowling Green 'n smeltkroes tussen universiteitslandkultuur.
Geskiedenis
Wood County in die Oil Boom
Die normale skool in 1910
Die normale skool in 1915. Die universiteitsaal is op die foto en staan steeds
'N Sokkerwedstryd in 1921. Destyds het die sokkerspan as die Normals bekend gestaan. Hulle het kort later in 1927 as die Valke bekend geword.
Bowling Green is in 1832 naby die middestad van die Great Black Swamp gevestig en is daarna deur sy setlaars benoem Bowling Green in Kentucky. Dit het begin as 'n stad danksy die olie-oplewing in die 1880's en die gevolglike skoonmaak van die moeras. Die kollege is in 1910 gestig as die Bowling Green State Normal School om onderwysers op te lei langs sy susterskollege in Kent. Teen die 1930's het dit 'n volwaardige universiteit geword. Tydens die Tweede Wêreldoorlog het die Universiteit gehelp om personeel in die vloot op te lei. Na Die Tweede Wêreldoorlog is beëindig, die toestroming van terugkerende soldate en hul kinderboompies het die universiteit sowel as die omliggende stad aansienlik vergroot. Alhoewel die huidige gebeure op universiteit gerig is, bly daar baie oorblyfsels van die oliedae in en rondom die Bowling Green-omgewing.
Sedert sy stigting het die universiteit baie noemenswaardige mense onderrig, insluitend Olimpiërs, wetenskaplikes, kapteins van die industrie, en Hollywood akteurs.
Klimaat
Bowling Green het vier verskillende seisoene. Die lente bring volop kersiebloeisels. Die somer kan snikende en vogtige hitte hê, maar die hortensia en hibiskus blom. Gedurende die herfs daal die temperature en die bome verander die kleur van hul blare in skakerings van rooi, oranje en geel. Winters in Bowling Green kan baie wisselvallig wees. Sommige winters is sag, met slegs 'n paar sentimeter sneeu. Soms kan die winters egter taai wees met sneeustorms en sneeustorting of ysstorms. 'N Konstante van alle seisoene is gereeld winderige dae. 'N Windbreker word aanbeveel, selfs in die vroeë somer.

Bowling Green is langs Interstate 75, en die Main Street is ook 'n belangrike plaaslike snelweg (Old US 25). Dit kan buite die middestad en die kampus wees tydrowend om sonder motor te ry.
Gratis parkeerplek is beskikbaar aan beide kante van Hoofstraat in die middestad. Dit kan egter moeilik wees om gedurende die kantoorure en laat in die nag van Donderdae tot Saterdae plek te kry.
Die stad bedryf openbare parkeerterreine in die middestad. Die universiteit bied ook openbare parkeerplek op baie van sy parkeerterreine aan. Dit is albei teen 'n klein bedrag beskikbaar, en kan gedurende sekere tye gratis wees, veral gedurende die naweek.
BGSU en die stad het albei parkeerhandhawingseenhede! BGSU gebruik outomatiese plaatlesers en patrollies om vinnig parkeerskendings op te vang. Diegene wat onwettig geparkeer het, sal byna vasgevang word, en die klein fooi by die kiosk is baie beter as 'n matige boete. Die meeste openbare parkeerterreine wat 'n fooi hef, het hul muntstelselmeters vervang deur 'n outomatiese kiosk waarmee u u nommerplaat kan registreer, wat u nie meer na u motor hoef te doen om 'n permit daarop te plaas nie.

Te voet
Die meeste van Bowling Green is ongeveer so loopbaar as enige ander Amerikaanse stad, met enkele uitsonderings.
BGSU is nog meer loopbaar as die res van Bowling Green. Byna elke groot gebou is binne 1,6 km van 'n ander gebou.
Die middestad is ook ekstra loopbaar omdat dit minder as 1,6 km lank is. Loopbaarheid word gehelp deur skaduwee geboue, genoeg kruisings en gereelde bankies.
Woosterstraat oorkant die universiteit is onaangenaam om te loop weens 'n gebrek aan skaduwee en die nabyheid van voertuigverkeer. Baie inwoners verkies om die straat oor te steek na die University Sidewalk, of Cloughstraat af te stap (aangename skaduwee in residensiële straat parallel met Wooster).

Die middestad van BG moet omseil word deur fietsryers wat deurry. As gevolg van swaar verkeer en lae sigbaarheid rondom hoeke is fietsry op straat minder maklik, en fietsry op die sypaadjie is onwettig Sentrum. Vir fietsryers wat die middestad besoek as bestemming, is daar 'n paar geankerde staanplekke vir fietsparkeerplek.

The University Seal
Smoking
BGSU is a non-smoking campus. Vaping and chewing tobacco are allowed outside, but smoking is only allowed in certain parking lots. The university may charge smokers with trespassing, even if they are not students.
The seal
It is rude to split up a group while walking around the University Seal, or to walk around it to the left. However, walking to the right of the seal is seen as a good luck charm. Standing on the seal (watch your balance!) at midnight for a kiss is a sign of future romance, and also a sign that you won't graduate.
