Alumni Centers: See What Our Peers Have Built

Beyond the Brickyard, see how other universities are serving their graduates with multipurpose alumni centers.

NC State is not unique in its need for more and better space for returning alumni. Other campuses face similar problems. For us, the Alumni Memorial Building occupies a beloved spot on campus, in the shadow of the Bell Tower and next to Holladay Hall. But it offers hardly any parking. The conference room, which occupies a quarter of the office, is too small for groups larger than 50. Agromeck yearbooks and alumni magazines are stored in a vault with party supplies, and there’s no room for guests to browse. Offices are double and triple-occupied by 19 staff members. Every inch of space is used—even a closet-sized restroom lounge is an office.
