HUB-Robeson
Every Friday and Saturday nights from 7pm to 1am at the HUB there is “Late Night”. This is a great opportunity for students to relax and enjoy movies, games, arts and crafts for free (with student ID). The HUB also offers a gaming area equipped with several ping pong and pool tables, as well as some gaming systems (Xbox and Playstation 3) all week, but you have to pay around $3.

Keep your eyes peeled for concerts and shows from people you are a fan of. Last year, free concerts (with student ID) and shows included Ca$h Ca$h, MKTO, Steve-O, and the Humans of New York Photographer at the HUB Alumni Hall. Information about free concerts are usually available at the HUB informations desk. Other concerts and shows that required an entrance fee included Steve Aoki, Diplo, and Kevin Hart.

Old Main Lawn
The renowned Old Main lawn is also a popular destination among students because they can study, have a picnic, or just play some sports. The Old Main lawn is absolutely beautiful during the fall and spring and is definitely a worthwhile place to hangout.
