.Mmm The Norcross campus provides a variety of meeting places for its inhabitants. Such places help form new friendships and encourage student interaction. While the cafeteria has always seemed an obvious center of activity, the patio adjacent to the dining area has become somewhat of a cross-cultural phenomenon.
