Tour de CC

Home, sweet home.

Kinda.

Ah yes, the Catholic Center. Our spiritual headquarters.

We thought that since we do and will do most of our blogging from here, we probably should explain this place. To help give you guys some background info, and so that you'll know where we're coming from.

And being the only place on our campus where you can find Jesus' Body, Blood, Soul AND Divinity at any time (take that Davis Center! Burn!) the Catholic Center (or the CC as we hip Catholics call it) gets a lot of use. It's a pretty busy place..with daily Mass, confession, Bible study, dinners, studying, conversations, movie nights, ping-pong tournaments, and general frivolity...okay, so it's not all spiritual, but Jesus is always here (even for the ping-pong....honestly, what church has a ping-pong table? Um, we do!).

Behold, the exterior:


Pretty sweet, huh? Doesn't it just ooze holiness, even at night? Notice the snowflakes. Holy snowflakes.

Sometimes people study here, but mostly they pretend to study when in reality they're doing other things, like listening to music, talking amongst themselves, or...blogging.... *ahem*

Anyway, behold the study room:



Unlike the study room, the chapel is a clutter-free area with only one intended purpose (though perhaps with a few variations). It's not what we'd call breathtakingly gorgeous, but it works well. And surprisingly, its yellow stained glass, lack of a center aisle, lack of kneelers, and 70s style brickwork (they don't call us Groovy UV for nothing) have really grown on us.

Behold! The Chapel!


So that concludes our tour for now. We hope you enjoyed the ride. We know we promised to talk about the potential Catholic Center wind turbine, but that will have to wait for another day (stay tuned!).

So, while we may not be organic or LEED Gold Certified, have an elevator that runs on vegetable oil, or Vermont's widest staircase, or a New World Tortilla, we do have Jesus. And that OWNS!
