Običajna šola leta 1915. Na sliki je univerzitetna dvorana, ki še vedno stoji
Nogometna tekma leta 1921. Takrat je bila nogometna ekipa znana kot Normali. Sokoli so postali znani kmalu pozneje leta 1927.
Bowling Green je bil naseljen leta 1832 v bližini središča Velikega črnega močvirja in so ga naseljenci poimenovali po Bowling Green v Kentuckyju. Začelo se je kot mesto zahvaljujoč razcvet nafte v osemdesetih letih in posledično čiščenje močvirja. Kolegij je bil ustanovljen leta 1910 kot državna normalna šola Bowling Green za šolanje učiteljev ob sestrski šoli v Kent. Do tridesetih let je postala polnopravna univerza. Med drugo svetovno vojno je univerza pomagala pri usposabljanju mornariškega osebja. Po Končala se je druga svetovna vojna, priliv vračajočih se vojakov in njihovih baby boom otrok je močno povečal velikost univerze in okoliškega mesta. Medtem ko so aktualni dogodki usmerjeni na univerze, je veliko relikvij naftnih dni ostalo v območju Bowling Green in okoli njega.
Od svoje ustanovitve je univerza poučevala številne pomembne ljudi, tudi Olimpijci, znanstveniki, industrijski kapitani in Hollywood igralci.

Stalnica vseh letnih časov so pogosti vetrovni dnevi. Tudi v zgodnjem poletju je priporočljiva vetrovka.

Električni avtomobili

Bowling Green je poleg avtoceste Interstate 75, njegova glavna ulica pa je tudi pomembna lokalna avtocesta (Old US 25). Mogoče je zunaj središča mesta in kampusa zamudno potovanje brez avtomobila.
Brezplačno parkirišče je na voljo ob obeh straneh glavne ulice v središču mesta. Vendar je iskanje mesta lahko težavno v delovnem času in pozno zvečer od četrtka do sobote.
Mesto upravlja javna parkirišča v središču mesta. Univerza ponuja tudi javno parkirišče na številnih parkiriščih. Oba sta na voljo za majhne stroške in sta lahko v določenih urah brezplačna, zlasti med vikendi.
BGSU in mesto imata enote za izvrševanje parkiranja! BGSU uporablja avtomatizirane čitalnike tablic in človeške patrulje za hitro odkrivanje kršitev parkiranja. Neprimerno parkirani bodo skoraj zagotovo ujeti, majhna pristojbina v kiosku pa je veliko boljša od zmerne globe. Večina javnih parkirišč, ki zaračunavajo pristojbino, so svoje števce, ki jih upravljajo s kovanci, zamenjali z avtomatiziranimi kioskami, s katerimi lahko registrirate številko svoje registrske tablice in odpravite potrebo po vrnitvi v svoj avto, da nanj položite dovoljenje.

Peš
Večina Bowling Green je približno tako pohodna kot katera koli Ameriško mesto, z nekaj izjemami.
BGSU je še bolj sprehodljiv kot preostali Bowling Green. Skoraj vsaka večja stavba je od 1,6 km oddaljena od druge.
Tudi območje Downtown je podobno izjemno sprehodljivo, saj je dolgo manj kot 1,6 km. Pohodnosti pomagajo zasenčeni prehodi stavb, dovolj križišč in pogoste klopi.
Po ulici Wooster nasproti univerze je zaradi pomanjkanja sence in neposredne bližine prometa voziti neprijetno. Mnogi domačini se odločijo prečkati ulico do univerzitetnega pločnika ali se sprehoditi po ulici Clough (prijetna senčna stanovanjska ulica, vzporedna z Woosterjem).

Bowling Green je navadno prijazen kolesarjem. Večina destinacij ima dovolj parkirišč za kolesa.

Pri kolesarjenju v kampusu bodite pozorni na majhne robote za dostavo z nizkimi profili.
Središče BG bi morali obiti kolesarji, ki gredo skozi. Zaradi gostega prometa in slabe vidljivosti okoli ovinkov je kolesarjenje na ulici manj enostavno, kolesarjenje po pločniku pa nezakonito v središču mesta. Za kolesarje, ki v središču mesta obiščejo destinacijo, je na voljo nekaj zasidranih stojal za parkiranje koles.

Don't be afraid to slow down and yield, even if you are in the right. There are some unusual on demand crosswalks on Wooster. Slow down and drive with caution when the light blinks yellow, and fully stop when the lights blink red.
Watch where you walk - Campus operations sometimes leaves manholes open to access the vast tunnel network under the campus, mind the signs and don't fall in.

Be on guard for ticks in natural areas if you leave designated paths. Make sure to check for ticks when you return.

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.
