In sports, Chicago has seven professional teams, from the Bears to the Cubs to the White Sox.

First-year residence hall housing offers quad-, triple-, double- and limited single-room occupancy rooms with private, semi-private, or community-style bathrooms in Campion Hall, de Nobili Hall, Mertz Hall, Regis Hall, the Simpson Living-Learning Center, and San Francisco Hall. 

When you're looking for a bite to eat, there are a number of dining options at your disposal. Loyola's residential dining halls, food courts, and cafés offer diverse menu options with an emphasis on high quality, seasonal ingredients. When you want a culinary adventure outside of Loyola's residence halls, every cuisine you can imagine is available in Rogers Park, downtown, and in the rest of Chicago's neighborhoods.
