The Inferno Café is a central meeting place on the first floor of Founders Hall.  It was constructed as part of the 2013-2014 Promise and Power campaign.  The area features comfortable seating, Wi-Fi access and a barista coffee and snack service.

A naming contest was held for both the La Verna Commons and the Inferno Café spaces. From more than 400 name submissions, La Verna Commons and Inferno Café were voted in by students, faculty and staff because of the symbolism attached to those names. The Inferno Café, a spot where the Alverno community goes to get energized, is associated with our athletic team the Alverno Inferno.
