The Student Recreation Center, more commonly
referred to as "The Barn" is located on the
college campus. The term "Barn" originated from the fact that
part of this structure was at one time a barn that was located on
the college property. It was converted to a student recreation
center and was thus called "The Barn" by former students.
This facility provides the students a place to go and relax, get a
snack, refreshments, play pool, electronic darts, foosball, air
