College Life
There are eleven residential buildings at St. Mark's, including dormitories, apartments and heritage residences. The rooms vary in size and amenity, but all are equipped with bed, desk and wardrobe, wired internet connection and smart-card access. Each dormitory floor or apartment has its own shared bathroom and laundry facilities. There is also a 24-hour computer suite with printing facilities.
St Mark's College offers extracurricular opportunities in theater, music, journalism and community service. There are also a large number of social and cultural events each year, including O Week festivities, the College Ball, the College Play, a comedy night, numerous "Arts Evenings" to showcase student talent, the Prosh parade (traditionally led by St Mark's students), and a number of dinners. Most of these events are organised by the student body. Additionally, the dining hall serves Formal Hall (sit-down dinner in academic gowns) four nights per week during the academic year.

Milo: Why?
Jerry: They’re officious and dull. They’re always making profound observations they’ve overheard.”
—Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)
“The destructive character lives from the feeling, not that life is worth living, but that suicide is not worth the trouble.”
