Favorite Things To Do
LMU’s School of Film and Television ensures that good movies are shown frequently. The school also welcomes many celebrity guest speakers and private screenings. LMU also features prominent musicians in intimate concert settings, while theatre arts students perform controversial plays like The Vagina Monologues to a crowded auditorium. Aside from its many speakers and forums, LMU also offers plenty of open space for Frisbee, lacrosse, or just laying out in the sun. Convo Hour (Tuesdays and Thursdays from 12 p.m.–1:30 p.m.) often features barbeques, music, and guest speakers. Free food always draws a large crowd.
The LMU campus offers something for everyone. The gym at Burns Rec Center features modern equipment, including treadmills with individual cable televisions and a wide range of weight machines. The center also offers table tennis, swimming, exercise classes, tennis, and basketball. In the mood for caffeine? LMU features three coffee shops with a variety of espresso, cappuccino, and tea to satisfy the caffeine craving. Students also can join an intramural sport on Hannon Field before dinner and then grab a late-night dessert at the Lion’s Den before dark. The Living Room features poetry readings, music, and comedy from talented students. For something really unique, view a mummified kitten from Egypt or a Buddah statue from Afganistan at the campus archeology museum.
