Student Collaboration Center Opens Fall 2022

The Student Collaboration Center opened for student use in the Fall of 2022. The 3,485 square foot space positions UofL nursing students for success by encouraging them to engage with one another, share ideas, and develop collectively. The new Student Collaboration Center features spaces to support collaboration in both open and private places, including an open kitchen area built to resemble a modern café. The Center made possible by a gift from Kindred Hospital has allowed students an area to rest and eat in between long classes, as well as study for exams.
