New Student Lounge at Downtown Campus in NBC Tower

UChicago opens a new campus space to enhance students’ experience for networking and relaxing within the Physical Sciences Division and University of Chicago Professional Education programs.

Enhancing the student experience

The student lounge, located on the same floor as students’ classrooms, features scenic views of the Chicago skyline, comfortable seating, charging stations, a microwave, a water cooler, and more. The overarching goal for the lounge is to create a welcoming space for students to utilize while they are not in class, and allow them to interact on a more personal level. This comfortable new option helps to enhance the student experience at UChicago's downtown campus.
