​At Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College, I’ve been able to live the typical college experience. I’ve been up way too late writing a paper last minute; I’ve gone to events put on by various college organizations; and I’ve missed a class or two on account of sleep. But what truly makes my college my home is the community it offers. I won’t lie to you, Saint Mary-of-the-Woods is a bit small for a college. But personally, that is what I love about it. The entire campus feels as if it is one community. I have been able to make connections with students, staff and faculty that I know will last after I graduate. The sense of community extends into Terre Haute. Terre Haute and Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College quickly welcomes their college students each year to cultivate a town where young adults can get their college education and experience the crazy times that being in college is supposed to bring.

Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College is unique. The gorgeous campus offers a serene atmosphere, but it is, quite literally, in the woods. Heading into Terre Haute can take anywhere from 10 - 30 minutes, depending on which part of town you’re headed to. That’s why downtown has become the perfect area for all SMWC students. I’ve taken advantage of downtown Terre Haute and learned the best places to eat, study and hang out. Downtown is about 10 minutes away from campus and offers a large array of places to eat at affordable prices (even for a college student). My favorite downtown restaurant has always been Wise Pies. Pizza is always affordable, and it helps when it tastes absolutely amazing. I highly recommend the white pizza or the WOW pizza. It’s become my go-to restaurant when my friends and I want to get something to eat but don’t want to spend too much. Splitting a delicious pizza from Wise Pies is always the way to go, but don’t let me make the decision for you. Places like Chavas, The Copper Bar, Crossroads Café and plenty of downtown restaurants are perfect for any college student’s appetite and budget. 

As for studying, two specific local coffee shops have become my personal favorite. Federal Coffee, in downtown Terre Haute, is the place to be when you just need to focus. Its small feel and coffee house vibes are perfect for independent studying. When I need a break, it’s also perfect for people watching in downtown. My other favorite is Java Haute. This coffee shop is arguably one of the most popular places in Terre Haute. But it has plenty of space for homework or group study sessions. They also are open late so its perfect for late night study sessions.

​As a college student, nightlife is incredibly important. It’s your free time! The evening is your time, as a college student, to de-stress and separate yourself from class for a bit. School work is incredibly important, but it’s also important to enjoy your college years and spend time having fun and being yourself. While I love a quiet night in doing my puzzles and watching a movie more than anyone, we, as college students, deserve to go out and enjoy ourselves! For me, I enjoy going to the Verve or hanging out at a bar such as 7th and Elm, Charlie’s Pub and Grub or Sonka Irish Pub. For a classy outing with friends, the Sycamore Winery is only five minutes away from SMWC’s campus! They always have some event going on. It could be a fun wine tasting, trivia or an event with beloved Terre Haute food trucks. There’s plenty more to do than just taste wine, but if you’re old enough I definitely recommend doing that. It also never hurts to have a low-key night by getting a group of friends and enjoying a movie at the Moonlite Drive-in Theater or Terre Haute’s AMC 12. If you’re lucky, you can even plan for a weekend where the Terre Haute Community Theater is putting on a show! As you get to know Terre Haute, you’ll be able to find the places that offer you an environment where you feel comfortable calling Terre Haute home.

​One tricky aspect of being an out-of-state college student is learning about new places in Terre Haute and finding events that are perfect for you. It took me a while, but really utilizing social media is the key. I was constantly scouring websites like See You in Terre Haute, Haute Happenings and simply googling “Things to do in Terre Haute?”. Liking and following all the businesses you can find is also a good way to go. This can give you access to knowledge about events going on, special promotions and great deals going on in Terre Haute! Taking advantage of your friends who are from Terre Haute also never hurts! 

​Terre Haute can be the perfect college town for anyone. You just have to make sure you find the things that give you joy and allow you to take breaks from the crazy and fast-paced academic life.

These beautiful loft-style apartments have the option to rent for those visitors who may need a little longer stay. So, whether you stay for the weekend or stay for a few weeks, you have two wonderful options that allow you to enjoy these gorgeous industrial living spaces while really getting to know the Terre Haute area.

An up-and-coming area that needs to be on everyone’s radar is the east side of Terre Haute that sits along State Road 46.

With this area being host to the future sight of Terre Haute’s casino and the current location of Terre Haute Convention & Visitors Bureau, there is plenty to see and do in this humble area. Attractions sit comfortably along I-70 and are perfect for any traveler passing through or planning a stay.

For a truly relaxing weekend, spend time on the campus of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College by booking a room at the Goodwin Guest House. This building, among others on this campus, is recognized under the National Register of Historic Places! You can enjoy a nature-filled campus and by exploring the nature trails, scenery, and farms that surround it. Say hi to the alpacas or check the White Violet Center for Eco-Justice and Farm Store. This is a unique stay that you won’t forget and one that will bring joy to the soul.

The Crossroads of America. Home of the Coca-Cola Bottle. Cross Country Town USA. The traditions that embraced our community before are the building blocks of our foundation today. No doubt, this pandemic has made for challenging times across our great community. From education, to retail, and our recognized tourism assets, much has changed, pivoted and been put on hold, but our pride to showcase our community remains steadfast.

For over 25 years, I’ve had the opportunity to serve you as your tourism director. That position has meant many things from small to large events to emotional and transformational ones. New friends and memories are created every time, but important to our community’s livelihood is the economic opportunities each of them bring. From dining out to staying in hotel rooms, the community’s rich assets that were part of our economic engine are ready for re-fueling.
​
Recently, we have embraced “See You In Terre Haute” as our new tagline. At the start of the pandemic, we modified it to “See You Soon In Terre Haute.” Throughout the summer months, we have witnessed the increased use of our nationally recognized outdoor, public amenities. We have seen a pause in our events. We have seen hardships of our local, small businesses. However, the resiliency of our community is holding strong.
​
As we enter a new season, although we may miss some of the events which have defined us, let’s continue to pay attention to our roots, the building blocks of our foundation. We look forward to Seeing You In Terre Haute, safely —enjoying our amenities, dining at our restaurants, staying at our hotels and enjoying our great outdoors. We hope to see you soon!

​— David Patterson, Tourism Director, Terre Haute Convention and Visitors Bureau
