Words cannot describe how awesome the Terrace is. Any time of the year ( except maybe the dead of winter) the Terrace is the perfect place to meet friends for a beer, to study, or just to relax and inhale some fresh air. There is always some event going on. When I was there for undergrad, the Terrace had some pretty decent bands come and play in the evenings. there is something magical about being on the lake in the summer listening to good music, drinking good beer and being among good friends.
