Using this Space

Multicultural lounges are used for events, classes, workshops, and programs; they serve as havens for sharing, support, and solidarity among students and the campus community. All of the Multicultural Lounges are open daily for residents to utilize as studying and social gathering spaces.

Residents of each building will have access to their community’s multicultural lounges from 10:00 AM to 12:00 AM, Monday through Sunday.
