Monarch Way & Brock Commons

Across Hampton Blvd, you’ll find one more block of campus simply called, "Monarch Way." Monarch Way is home to our Arts District, Health Sciences, Chartway Arena, the ODU Bookstore, and fantastic dining options. At the north end, you’ll find Brock Commons, an outdoor performance area.

Brock Commons is home to the Reign the Mermaid which was designed by former ODU students Brooke Benham and Georgia Mason. It was dedicated during homecoming in October of 2020 through student initiatives, with call backs to ODU chants “Reign On” and “Monarchs Reign.” Click here to listen now.
