The Food Is Horrible Most of the Time

The food is horrible most of the time here at La Roche College. The only two places to eat on campus is the Cafeteria and Redhawk Cafe, which serves as a take out Cafe for students not wanting cafeteria food or must run to class. Walking in the cafeteria at anytime of the day, you will see food that you've never seen or heard of before, since alot of cooks who work their are either lazy, bad cooks, or have pretty wild imaginations. The food is only good every so often, usually on a day when there are visitors on campus such as a prospective student visit day, other then that, the food is crappy, dull, or gross, and usually worse on weekends and less variaty then then there is on weekdays. Also the hours can be inconvient, especially on weekends. The Redhawk Cafe, on the other hand, has pretty good food. Not a big selection, but it is better then the cafeteria food. The only downside with the Cafe is that every so often, the wraps they make tend to get soggy and gross, and stomachs tend to not agree with it. Also, even though they are open all day on weekdays, they are not open on weekends and at times they tend to close randomly for unknown reason on weekdays. Your best shots at avoiding the food here, while not turning anorexic, is either buying and eating your own food, or leaving campus to go eat at a fast food place down the street.

Very Nice Modern Facilities

The facilities here at La Roche College are very modernized..since the college is still considered kind of new..compared to other colleges. Founded in 1963, the oldest building is the Wright Library..which was built in 1963 and renovated in the Summer of 2010. The newest being Bold Hall 2..an extension wing to Bold Hall 1..one of the 4 residence halls on campus. All the classroom buildings are updated with the latest technology and smart classrooms in the buildings with smart boards in the rooms. The College Center Square, the main student union center, is a popular gathering place among many students. The Cantalops Dinning Hall, which is the only cafeteria on campus, and the Redhawk Cafe, the take out cafe for those who want a quick snack, have both been recently renovated also during the Summer of 2010. The Kerr Fitness and Sports Center, built in 1993 and renovated during the Summer of 2011, offers the newest training equitment, a weight room, indoor running track above the gym, and the gym itself, used for hosting various events starting from Academic Orientation, to sporting events through out the year, and ending with Commencement. The dorms are spacious with bathrooms in each room. Overall, the facilities on campus are very nice and attractive to visitors, prospective students, and current students and staff. Since the academic buildings are all connected, LRC can, in some ways, give off an high school like atmosphere since all the classes are under one roof and the dorms and gym are very close by, so you never have to walk too far especially in cold weather. LRC is a great place for those who are looking at a very small college with small class sizes.

Both Girls and Guys Can Be Rude but Friendly

Both girls and guys can be rude and friendly. To make it short, it's pretty much the same social setting as high school. Not much difference.
