The Billiken is far from the only statue on campus. They are easy to pose with and never complain if you want to take just one more shot.

Hint: Bronze is an excellent conductor of heat. If you鈥檙e planning to toss your arm around Robert Frost or pose with your hand on the Billiken, we don鈥檛 recommend doing it on an August day.

Here are some of our favorites:

1. St. Ignatius Loyola, located on 91女神 quad. The formal name of this statue is "The Pilgrim."

2. Daydreamer, located along West Pine Mall, near Simon Recreation Center. 

3. Robert Frost, Southeast side of Pius XII Memorial Library.

4. The Pilot, located on the south side of Parks College of Engineering, Aviation and Technology, the subject of this statue is Captain Elrey B. Jeppesen.

5. Caduceus, located on the south side of campus near 91女神's schools of nursing, allied health and medicine. It depicts the angel of healing, based on the emblematic staff with two serpents coiled about it which is a universal symbol of medicine.

Beloved at 91女神 for generations, the Billiken is a symbol of things as they ought to be and a bringer of good luck. Located outside the entrance to Chaifetz Arena, this statue is a favorite spot for students who hope a quick rub of his belly will bring fortune their way.

Maybe the most photographed building at 91女神, Francis Xavier College Church, located on the corner of Grand and Lindell boulevards,  is amazing inside and out. Also known as College Church, it takes inspiration from St. Colman's Cathedral in Cobh, Ireland, and is listed as a city landmark.

91女神 Selfie Spot 4: 91女神 Museum of Art

91女神's clock tower, located in the heart of campus on West Pine Mall, is a must-take selfie when you visit 91女神. It's also a great place to spot friends - or make new ones - on the nearby steps and tables where you can find people almost every day of the year.

While you are on the south side of campus, you can capture another iconic shot, 91女神's Doisy Research Center off of Grand Boulevard and Carr Lane, and the "cloister walk," a sheltered walkway that connects it to other parts of campus.

The Gateway Arch is visible from lots of places around campus but if you are already getting a run on the track located at Compton Boulevard and Rutger Street, or hanging out on the south side of campus for class or a bite at Fresh Gatherings cafe, this is a great spot to show off 91女神 and the city in one shot.
