Student Life
The majority of Briercrest College students live in residence and participate in a school meal plan in a dining hall operated by Sodexo.
The college dormitories have a history of being named after people who have had significant impact throughout the history of the schools. Current dormitories at Briercrest include:
- Isabel Whittaker (women), often called "Whit"
- Sinclair Whittaker (men), often called "Whit"
- Hillson Hall (women, high school)
- Bergren Place (women)
- Sundbo Place (married students, women, and men over 21 years of age)
- Lewis Apartments (men), known fondly as "LA"
- Eliason Manor (men) built in 2005
- Glen Manor (men, high school)
- Brygmann Hall (men, closed), often known as "Brygg"
The last of the war-building dormitories, known most recently as Gable Heights, was demolished in summer 2005.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or life:
“What is the student but a lover courting a fickle mistress who ever eludes his grasp?”
—Sir William Osler (1849–1919)
“I know some of my self-worth comes from tennis, and it’s hard to think of doing something else where you know you’ll never be the best. Tennis players are rare creatures: where else in the world can you know that you’re the best? The definitiveness of it is the beauty of it, but it’s not all there is to life and I’m ready to explore the alternatives.”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
