Deneen Center and The Lair

Through its staff and The Office of Campus Activities, The Lair provides social, cultural and recreational programming aiming to make leisure time a cooperative factor with study. 

The Lair, located in lower Deneen Center, houses a game room and dining area which features (2) 37" LCD Screens, and (2) wall-mounted 27" televisions.  This is a great place to catch the big game, or your favorite show with your friends!  Also located in the Lair:  soda machines, pay phone, microwave, change machine, restrooms, campus, local and national newspapers, ATM Machine, and free popcorn!

Come to the Lair to hear live music!  During each semester, catch local or nationally touring musicians.  When the weather is warm, acoustic concerts may be held in the Pit, just outside the Lair.  Karaoke, coffeehouse open mic nights and other fun events make the Lair an active part of our students lives.

Want to catch a movie?  Campus Activities Board shows new movie releases in the Lair through the academic year.  The Lair is also a quiet study area during finals week each semester.
