UT colleges as spring bouquets

As spring approaches, I can’t help but think about all the beautiful flowers that will soon blossom. So with that spirit in mind, here are the flower arrangements I believe best embody each UT college. 

Cockrell School of Engineering

Without a doubt, if the Cockrell School of Engineering were a flower arrangement, it would be the iconic Lego flower set. It’s different, imaginative, and takes work to assemble. However, It’s pretty and fun, but it does come at a cost, much like being an engineering student!

COLA is a huge melting pot of different people and majors, and it’s only fair if the arrangement reflects the same thing. Varying in both flowers and colors this bouquet will have something for everyone!

Any earth lover and plant enthusiast would find this bouquet perfect for any occasion. It’s simple yet has a lot to offer, and it’s sure to last longer than most flowers with proper care.

Keeping the joys of teaching in mind, this bouquet gives off the most comforting and radiant energy. It reminds me of flowers I would give my first-grade teacher, and she would keep them on her desk.

You can never go wrong with a classic. The reason why white roses in a glass vase have worked for this long speaks for itself. It’s a timeless combination, and just like art, it’s sure to live forever.

A more earthy approach to a classic, this arrangement is clean and professional. It’s sure to look good in any space; it’s very functional! 

College of Pharmacy

White and blue seem to be the typical colors of the pharmacist uniform, so it’s only fitting that the flowers reflect that. Blue and white are such an underrated combo, much like the College of Pharmacy, yet look how much it gives us! 

McCombs School of Business

Dark and to themselves, there is nothing more McCombs than this arrangement. It’s pretty, but you probably wouldn’t get this to brighten up your space. 

Moody College of Communication

Loud yet subtle, Moody is full of creativity and imagination while maintaining professionalism and emphasizing the importance of connection. This flower bouquet will make a great impression while adding color and beauty wherever it is. 

Final Thoughts 

I’m a firm believer that every college has so much life and personality to them in their own way, and just like flowers they always have room to grow! Each is special and beautiful in its own way.
