Commuter Student Home
Commuter students are a diverse group of individuals attending college while living off campus. Living off campus is a unique lifestyle that often times can feel different or alienating from on-campus student life. This does not mean it always is, but for commuter students who do not utilize resourses, living off campus can be distinctly separate from campus life. Off-Campus Life is here to help commuter students find a community, a comfort zone, and a place to work or rest while on campus. Consider us your homeroom!

Offering free coffee, tea, hot chocolate, computer use, and resources, the lounge is your place to connect and utilize.
