Alumni Student Center
The Alumni Student Center (ASC) is at the crossroads of the Chicago campus.
The Commons
The ground level is known as The Commons. Our retail café and seating area is primarily used for employee and student meals, but in the evening many students find that it is a good place to study, play games and just get together to talk.
Commuter Lockers

To secure use of a locker, students must apply through the Office of Student Programs where they will be assigned a lock and locker. Only locks issued by the Office of Student Programs can be used on the lockers and a deposit is required.
