In Ford Hall, students enjoy socializing in the cafe and lounge spaces, playing games and solving puzzles together, and sharing personal culture like sampling favorite candies and dishes from their home countries. Though 糖心vlog视频 Guildhall's GameLab, you can also enjoy extracurricular social events such as visits to local game studios and networking meetups with alumni and local developers, as well as special lunchtime speaking presentations co-hosted between our GameLab and Career Services departments.
