Student Center

The Barnes Student Center is the community center of the university for all members of the university family--students, faculty, administration, alumni, and guests. Its design fosters a central gathering point for community life at IWU.

The Barnes Student Center provides for services, conveniences, and amenities that members of the university family need in their daily life on campus and for getting to know and understand one another through informal association outside the classroom.

The Barnes Student Center is part of the university educational process by frequently hosting academic forums, classes, and research initiatives. The facility provides social and recreational programming, aimed to make free time activity learning opportunities that support a student's educational pursuits. These initiatives foster the development of students as citizens in our community as well as their intellects.
