TCO hangouts

Lourdes Reynes-Quisumbing Hall

The Lourdes Reynes-Quisumbing Hall, commonly known as "LRQ" or "Study Hall" is a place where TCO officers have their weekly meeting.  For some, it is a place for studying and chilling-out.  According to Therese Maranga, a second year TCO student, “LRQ is the best place to amble on while you wait for your next subject.”  It is equipped with study tables and chairs, where most meetings are held, sofas and coffee tables for comfortable studying, wall fans to fight the heat, reading materials like the school paper and other magazines and instruments, which you can use to practice or entertain yourself with.  Do you want to be serenaded while studying?  LRQ is the place for you.

MML-steps

The Steps of the Mother Marie-Louise Building or the “MML steps” is where you can see graduating students plan their thesis.  It is also a good place for meetings and practices since there are not many distractions. The shade it provides plus the natural ventilation and great view makes it a great hang-out place.

College Communication Center

The Greenhouse or the Communication Center (CC), live up to its name because this is the place where students do small talks and gossips. You can access free Wi-Fi and do some studying, researching and project making in the CC.  “It is my mini sanctuary” said Bea Isobel Quiachon.

Carport

The Carport may seem to look like a waiting shed for students but actually it is also a great hang out place. The school Wi-Fi reaches the area, and the place is spacious and quiet, that some students even like to read books here.  It is also a good place for practices, meetings and bonding.
