Description

A combination of the words "Norris" and "Starbucks," this term refers to the Starbucks coffee shop that is located on the first floor of Norris. It serves various coffees, teas, pastries, snacks, and other items, seven days a week. Many students also use this term to refer to the lounge area that surround the Starbucks in Norris, in addition to the coffee shop itself. This usage of this term also helps differentiate the Starbucks in Norris from the Starbucks on Sherman Avenue in downtown Evanston, which many students also frequent.

Usage

Usage of this term is very widespread. It is used by the majority of Northwestern undergraduate students, and is also used by faculty, graduate students, and staff.

Example Sentence

Want to meet at Norbucks to study?
