Student Center

Center for Student Involvement

The EMU Student Center has been in the works for the past 2 years, this project finally came to a conclusion in November. One of the main points of the center is bringing different components of Eastern’s campus closer together. Where this is most obvious is in The Center for Student Involvement (CSI). This area on the third floor brings together a large number of student offices that were before scattered through McKenny union and campus as a whole.
➢ CSI includes Campus Life, the student organization that promotes events on campus most widely known being Thursday Night Tunes, and Friday/Monday movies.
➢ Diversity and Community Involvement (DCI), which brings all of the diversity programs such as the Women’s Center, Multicultural Affairs, and the service programs such as Alternative Breaks, Students Against Hunger and Homelessness (SAHAH), Habitat for Humanity, Jumpstart, Kid Konnection, America Reads, Gathering Resources to be Educated about our Environment and Nature (GREEN).
➢ Student Government, the student run campus governing body.
➢ Greek Life, the office that houses the governing bodies of Greek organizations
➢ Large Numbers of Student run programs.
These offices being so close together gives students working in them the ability to pool resources with one another. An example of this is a benefit concert hosted by the Alternative Breaks program as a fundraiser. The planning stages of this event relied highly on the fact that Campus Life was right next door to their offices. The Two facility advisors for Campus Life Helped out a great deal, not only by giving advise on the event but also by donating the use of a number of machines in their office for advertising. The CSI information desk is open during normal business Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 8 PM but you can usually find students in their offices at any time the building is open diligently working for their respective organizations.
