Four hidden gems around Victoria U

Law student Katherine Georgious with her coffee mug by Caffiends.

Winter is coming. And there’s hot chocolate to be had. In the basement of the Pratt Library to be precise.

We knew law students would soon be staking out the goods in our transition space across the street from the Faculty of Law.

The “Four Hidden Gems around Victoria U” in the latest issue of the law student newspaper, Ultra Vires, was too good not to share with the wider Faculty of Law community, particularly those addicted to caffeine. And chocolate.

Here’s what 3L and UV writer Katherine Georgious found (reprinted with permission):

1. Caffiends (1^st Floor, Victoria College)

$1 coffee. They’ll give you a mug. Need we say more?

2. Emmanuel Student Lounge (3^rd floor, Emmanuel College)

Located right across from Emmanuel Library, this student lounge has a $1 soda machine, and a fridge with cold, filtered water for when you need a refill whilst studying.

3. Classy Bathrooms (Victoria College)  

It’s not the “Men’s Bathroom”  here at Vic College, it’s the “Gentlemen’s Bathroom.” While Flavelle’s bathrooms made you feel at risk of infection at all times, Vic College wants you to feel classy, even when you’re peeing.

4. Hot Chocolate Machine (Basement, Pratt Library)

This machine serves hot chocolate that is both cheap and delicious. To quote one student “I went on a date with my boyfriend for $2.50.”

Cheap and cheerful libations around Vic. Looking forward to the temperatures dropping stat.
