Student Life
A proud tradition at OVC is the naming of the class with a mascot and a color. This mascot represents them throughout the four phases, and is used regularly in conjunction with not only academics, but also intramural. Hockey plays a large part in these intramural, with rivalries coming to a head in a college wide round-robin "Challenge Cup", held in March of every year.

- The 2007 Golden Grizzlies
- The 2008 Blue Qimmiqs
- The 2009 Jade Jaguars
- The 2010 Crimson Crocodiles

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or life:
“They tend to be suspicious, bristly, paranoid-type people with huge egos they push around like some elephantiasis victim with his distended testicles in a wheelbarrow terrified no doubt that some skulking ingrate of a clone student will sneak into his very brain and steal his genius work.”
—William Burroughs (b. 1914)
“Truth is the kind of error without which a certain species of life could not live. The value for life is ultimately decisive.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
