The Bell Center
The Bell Center is the perfect place on campus to work out, play sports, take fitness classes and hang out with friends. Inside, there are 8 gymnasium courts, 4 racquetball courts, a fitness studio and a pool.Dog Town and Downtown
Dog Town is right down the street from campus and has a bunch of yummy food options. My friends and I like to go there for lunch when we need a break from the dining hall food. In this video, we also talk about the different fun things to do and places to go in downtown Des Moines.More About Drake!
In this video, my friend, Natalie, and I talk about the weather in Des Moines, the size of campus and the environment/surrounding area. The intimate size of Drake really makes me feel more connected to my peers and my professors, and I like that I am never more than 10 minutes away from any building. At Drake you don't feel like another number in their statistics. The faculty really does care about you and they want to see you succeed.Hubbell Dining Hall
Hubbell Dining Hall is the main dining spot on campus. This buffet-style location has several options such as simple servings, beverages, Italian, daily dish, chef's dish, vegan entrees, and more.I would like to receive updates and offers from CollegeXpress via email.
