Housing

"I'm staying on campus.  What's the dorm situation like?"
Participants staying on campus will be housed in "College Hill Suites."  This dormitory was built in 2006 and is the newest facility on campus.  Families will find the suite format and the convenience to dinging and the School of Music ideal.

"Anything special we need to bring if we're living in the dorm?"
All linens will be provided (sheets, pillow, blanket, towel).  Towels can be exchanged for a $1 fee. Other than that, there are some other items that might be nice:

• Your own pillow :-)
• PJ's and a robe (you will be sharing some facilities)
  
• Alarm Clock
  
• Snacks/Drinks (you will have a fridge)

Dining

"Tell me about the Dining Hall..."
Participants staying on campus will be issued a meal card for use in Todd Dining Hall.  This dining hall is next door to College Hill Suites. This is NOT your ordinary college cafeteria.  More like a food court at your local mall, there are choices for everyone from kids to vegetarians.

"We're not staying in the dorm.  Can we take advantage of close convenient meals?"
You don't have to be staying in the dormitory to have a meal plan.  Plans can be purchased separately ($150 for adults and children 10 and over. $115 for children 9 and under).  Meals in Todd can also be purchased ala carte if you wish to grab a quick bite.  The dining hall takes cash, Visa and Mastercard. 

"Are there other places to grab lunch quickly?"
There's a local deli (Mike's Deli) within walking distance of the School of Music.  Wendy's, Arby's and McDonald's are just down the street also.  They're a little too far to walk though (especially in July!).
