The new student center is expected to have its grand opening Nov. 6. A key feature of the 181,000-square-foot facility is the breadth of meeting space that will be available for a variety of campus activities, meetings and business conferences. Most of the meeting rooms are located on the third floor (see blueprint below), with large banquet rooms and an auditorium on the second floor. Approximately 660 events have already been booked for the facility from November through June 2007. For reservations, call the Event Planning Office at 487-4108.
