Loyola University Chicago (LUC) Campus

Hello! My name is Hannah Reese and I am going to be your guide at Loyola University Chicago. Welcome to my life here as a student!

One of the most popular places to study on campus is the IC or the Information Commons. It is connected to the library and placed facing Lake Michigan. The IC has a ton of tables for studying as well as computers set up at half of the tables. For students that want to study in small groups, there are rooms that students can rent out.

Loyola University Chicago prides themselves on being environmentally conscious. The Institute of Environmental Sustainability is a hub for environmental studies majors and those related classes. The building is also home to an indoor greenhouse as well as our biosoap making lab.

Loyola Chicago has many building specialized for certain classes, as well as buildings, such as Cuneo, for extra classrooms. Many of the new buildings are very nice and have been constructed to be environmentally conscious.

Loyola University has an amazing arts program - the classes for this broad range of studies can be found in the Mundelein Center for the Fine and Performing Arts. Within the building, there are stages, music rooms, classrooms, a cafe, and multiple open areas which students can study in. This is my go-to place during finals week!

Loyola University is located right next to Lake Michigan. From many of the buildings, you can actually see the lake, which most students find beautiful and relaxing. There is a sidewalk that follows the border of the lake which provides a scenic walk for students traveling to and from classes.

There are two main quads at Loyola Chicago. Both the East and West quads are used to cross between the academic buildings that surround them.

Inside Loyola Chicago's Damen Student Center is the Halas Rec Center. There are three floors which include, a cardio room with machines, multiple dance studios, a weightlifting floor, a pool, and a sauna. It is free for all students and faculty members. It also offers free classes like Zumba, yoga, spin, as well as many others.

Loyola has two main campuses: Lake Shore Campus and Water Tower Campus. With a free shuttle running between the two, students can easily take courses at both locations. While certain areas of study are focused on a specific campus, there are often course options available on both campuses.

The Halas Rec Center is open and free to students all week long. Halas offers several opportunities for independent exercise, from aerobic machines upstairs to the lap pool and weight room downstairs. In addition, Halas offers free student-led group classes in a variety of areas, from yoga to body sculpting workouts, all of which can be joined at any point throughout the year.

Loyola's U-Pass lets you not worry about if you have a declining balance on your train card, which is a MUST if you want to explore the city!

In this we study downtown, show a little bit of the campus.

most of my history classes and core classes are held in crown center for the humanities, as well as a good handful of my professor's office hours!
