Located across from the Bay Tree Bookstore, the Student Union complements college facilities by providing a centrally located place for social, recreational, and educational gatherings for all students and members of the campus community.

The Student Union is also home to the campus-wide student governing body (Student Union Assembly) and to student organizations, the Bike Co-op, Engaging Education, and Student Organization Advising and Resources (SOAR).

🍴 Dining

There are five dining halls on our main campus, along with 12 cafe options at key locations. The good news is, regardless of where you find yourself during the day, you may choose to eat at any one of our dining halls. Not only do we have different rotating menus for each dining hall every month, offering produce sourced from our campus and local organic farms, we provide complete nutritional breakdowns and a simple system to easily identify dietary restrictions.
