The fully wired campus is convenient for all students who bring computers and those who rely on the campus labs. Each residence hall room is wired for the Internet and campus network system and each residence hall has multiple student computer labs that are accessible 24 hours a day. Many of the labs in the academic buildings are also accessible 24 hours a day.  

In addition, Briar Cliff owns athletic practice fields and an indoor practice dome in neighboring South Sioux City, Neb.
