On Wednesday, Oct. 24, 2018, a team of photographers and videographers fanned out across campus and Washington, D.C., to chronicle a day in the life of Catholic University. Working from before sunrise to long after sunset, the team captured the student experience from every angle. This is CatholicU.

Sunrise at Catholic University

The sun rose over Catholic University at 7:26 a.m. on Oct. 24. The sunrise was captured from the bell tower of the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, which is adjacent to campus.

One of the first places many students head after waking up is the Edward J. Pryzbyla University Center, known as the Pryz. The Pryz serves as the heart of campus and is often bustling with activity throughout the day. 

Second mosaic photo shows a few students inside the Starbucks on the top floor of the Pryz.

The Pryz is home to a Starbucks (seen here), student restaurant, food court, convenience store (the P.O.D.), Murphy’s Grill, and Murphy's Lounge.

The student restaurant on the top floor is all-you-care-to-eat. (A particular favorite for students is Nugget Night, or Nug Night.) Soon, the University will break ground on a new dining hall next to the Pryz.

Fourth mosaic photo shows students sitting in comfortable chairs in the gallery area of the Pryz with a sunlit fall campus scene through the windows behind them.

Facing the center of campus, the Pryz’s chairs and large windows offer great views, especially in the fall. Student events are often hosted in the Pryz or on the lawn outside. Some of the most popular events are Mr. CUA, Fall Festival, Cardinalpalooza, and Late Night Breakfast.

Fifth mosaic photo is taken from outside looking through the full-length window wall into Murphy's Lounge where a male student is sitting in a chair reading.

Murphy’s Lounge, opened in 2016, features TVs, a fireplace, and several comfortable places for studying.

Sixth mosaic photo shows a female student seated at a table in Starbucks reading.

The on-campus Starbucks serves as a meeting place and study spot. Located on the third floor, the Starbucks is across from the atrium and next to the Great Room, where many campus events are held.

As the day shifts, many students dive into the heart of their academic schedules. They attend classes, study, collaborate on class projects, and write papers. But they also find time to hang out with friends and take advantage of all the green space the campus offers.

Lunch Time!

There are several options for lunch on campus in the Pryzbyla Center, including an all-you-care-to-enjoy student restaurant, a food court (with a Chick-fil-A and Which Wich, as well as stations for pizza, burgers, sushi, salad, and more), and Murphy’s, a restaurant and pub.

As the academic portion of the day winds down, students get a chance to pursue their other interests through student organizations, faith development, residence hall activities, the arts, exercise, and more. This is the heart of student life at CatholicU.

Sunset at Catholic University

Captured from the rooftop of Opus Hall, the sunset occurred at 6:17 p.m. on Oct. 24. After a day full of classes, jobs, and internships, students get the chance to explore some of their other interests.

A Celebration of Culture
