This is Your Space.

The Loft is a place for you and your community.  It is shared, it is open, it is intentional, and it is yours.  Do with it what you will.

You are given a key (well actually a PED; an electronic door opening device) to a 24/7 open area that houses thousands of existing and potential memories.  Exclusive to HLC members, your access gives you a mutual bond with the other community members.

This list is non-exhaustive, so be creative, and be respectful:

• Sit here quietly, maybe reading or listening to music, relaxing to the sound of your peers in conversation, or if you are lucky, it will be quiet and relaxing.
• Conversate openly.
• Conversate privately.
• Browse the never ending library of books, graphic novels, reference books, maps, etc.
• Check your e-mail on your laptop or on our Macs and PCs located at the end of the room.
• Play the piano, teach someone to play the piano, however, not during office hours.  The faculty and staff of the HLC and Honors Program work hard to maintain a top-notch program, and they need to focus.
• During office hours, make an appointment with the Honors Staff.
• Watch TV or Watch a Movie with your friends.  The Loft is 100 x bigger than the residence hall rooms, so you can congregate a lot of people for a funny, scary, or exciting shared experience.
• Play Games! Jenga! Scrabble! Cards! Euchre! Scattegories! Apples to Apples! Poker! Monopoly! Risk! Chess! Anything!
• Work on homework at our large tables, used for collaborative group work, or our individual lounge chairs for your private convenience.
• Order Pizza, or Cookie Jar http://www.cookiejarandmore.com/
• Don’t do you artwork here, but you can put it up!
