What Students Are Saying

We love hanging out outside with friends and going to school events!
Sarah from Tucson, AZ
Same stuff all the time. You start to get really creative towards the end of the year with all the hidden gems in the commons. A must try is a suicide (mix every drink together, including milk and coffee). Good times. Chef salad is my personal favorite and the BLTs are awesome.
