We are now accepting online submission of event advertisement requests. Visit our Services page for more information.

Every student needs a place to relax, study for an exam, eat a hearty meal, or just have fun. University Center houses a variety of facilities that assist students in these endeavors. Whether your purpose is to grab a meal, inquire about a housing assignment, extract money from an ATM, or buy textbooks, you can do it in University Center.

University Center holds multiple offices for the Division of Student Affairs and other student-centered offices. Visitors can take in culture at the art gallery or type a paper in the computer lab. For a complete listing of offices and student spaces located in the University Center, visit the Building Directory.

Student Centers emerged in the 1890s as the "living room" of the campus. Here at University Center, colorful seating greets visitors to the Atrium. The Multicultural Lounge offers quiet comfort with exotic decor. The collection of Mac Street Lounges on the lower level hold recreational options in addition to our collection of student artwork.

So come visit us at University Center!

Share your thoughts on what would make the building a better place at the administration office on the main level. Make a space reservation for your next meeting. Ask for a student employment application at the Information Desk. We're waiting to meet you!
