The Project

With an annual enrollment of 32,000 full and part-time students Red River College has experienced significant growth, requiring it to change and adapt to meet the needs of its diverse student body. The Cave is the main student lounge located in Red River College's Notre Dame Campus. It serves as a social gathering node for students to meet friends, exchange ideas, watch movies or experience live music.
