For those of you who don’t often venture over to the corner of University and State, maybe it’s about time you do! With the opening of Marriott Hall also came the newest coffee spot on campus: LavAzza. Located in the lobby of Marriott, the large windows and open floor plan provide a light, airy, and welcoming feel. Whether you’re sitting down to study or grabbing a cup on-the-go, LavAzza has an abundance of delicious treats to offer!
