The
University Center
| |
The University Center is home to virtually every area of the university's social and recreational opportunities. Inside you'll find several dining areas, conference rooms, ballrooms, study lounges, a coffeehouse, Entropy (an on-campus convenience store) and the bookstore. It also holds athletic facilities which include basketball and volleyball courts, racquetball and squash courts, a pool and diving well, an aerobics room and Cybex strength-training equipment and exercise equipment. In addition, student organizations, including the school's newspaper and yearbook staffs, and other groups have office space on the third floor. In the basement you can find the University Postal Services, The Career Center, WRCT-Carnegie Mellon's radio station, and the Scotland Yard game room.
McConomy Auditorium is turned into a student-run cinema four nights a week. Admission is one dollar. Foreign or independent films are shown Thursdays; Fridays and Saturdays show second-run films; and Sundays are whatever the students feel like playing, such as a marathon of popular television shows or all the Indiana Jones films back to back.
