In Indianapolis lives a group
of extraordinary students,
among the most talented in Indiana.
They are Jaguars and
this is where they roam.
But what do we actually
know of their habitat?
Let us take a step into their world.
Jags can be found in the residence
halls located on the IUPUI
campus in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Here in University Tower,
the Jaguars prepare for
a day of classes, club meetings,
and exploring the city.
Now before they can conquer the day,
the Jag must first conquer their laundry.
For years they relied on their parents for
this task, now it is up to them.

It is not all work for the Jaguar.
Here you can see students
unwind with a game of pool or
a rather aggressive game of ping pong.
When a match is finally won,
it is truly a remarkable achievement.
When the Jaguars must finally venture
outside the comfort of the residence hall,
they often gravitate
toward the Campus Center.
It's here the students can grab their
third cup of coffee for the day,
a bit of sustenance, or
a book from the bookstore.

That's not all this facility
has in store for the Jaguar.
From the forensic club
to the equestrian team,
like-minded Jags from across campus
congregate at the student org office on
the third floor to learn about the nearly
500 student organizations on campus.
The Campus Center is not only a place for
socialization but also a place for solace.
Looking for a quiet place to study,
a resourceful Jaguar can take advantage of
one of the many nooks and crannies
perfect for a quick study session.
Now what about those who
have more energy to burn?
For active Jags, a quick trip to
the lower level will take them to
10,000 square feet of workout space,
the perfect place to roam.
Adjusting to the Indianapolis
climate can be a challenge.
The winters can be quite cold and
the summers a tad hot.
The Jaguars move about the campus
through these skywalks, safe and
cocooned away from the elements.
On a beautiful day such as today, you
can often find the Jags out in the wild.
With the birds singing and
the sun shining,
the carefree students recline out on
the lawn for a quick study break.
Quiet now.
If the exterior conditions
aren't as hospitable,
you can find the Jags
studying in the library.
It may take hours but it is only through
these measures that a Jaguar can
truly prepare for a looming examination.

This great building is a lifeline for
the Jaguars.
University Library provides
vital resources needed for
their academic survival.
It's within these halls that students
find the materials they need
to ace their coursework.
It is at this intersection
that worlds collide.
Students leaving the library and
those headed to class cross
paths at this very spot.
If you look closely, you can catch
a glimpse inside a lecture hall.
As you can see, the Jaguars
are right at home in the classroom.
We've caught them right in
the middle of their studies.
[MUSIC]
It is not unlikely to encounter the Jaguar
in a setting quite different from
the lecture hall with nearly
100 research centers on campus,
the student never has to travel far for
a hands-on learning experience.
With the day finally drawing to a close,
Jaguars are free to roam the city.
But deciding what to do first may
prove to be a difficult choice.
There is much to learn about the Jaguar.
But what we do know is that they're
among the most passionate and
dedicated of students.
If you ever travel to the heart of
Indianapolis, take a moment to explore and
experience their unique habitat.
