Do we have campus blueprints?

There are some St. Olaf websites that have floor plans and blueprints of various areas on campus. If you are looking for a place to start, or want to get an idea of what the buildings look like, some of these floor plans have details on different spaces and locations.

I need some supplies!

The Cave is accessible in the DiSCO (3rd floor of Rolvaag Memorial Library). Materials in the Cave are available for anyone that is working on a project.
