A. Ray Olpin Student Union

The A. Ray Olpin Union advances a sense of community, unifying the University of Utah by embracing all students, faculty, staff, alumni, and guests. We bolster the educational mission of the University of Utah and the development of students as lifelong learners by delivering an array of cultural, educational, social, and recreational programs, services, and facilities.

Student Union: It’s the place where new friends meet. Where students learn to lead. Where parties and events draw thousands. Where lunch and a study break fit between classes. It’s the place where academic and local communities come together at the University of Utah.

The Union is the community center of the college, serving students, faculty, staff, alumni, and guests. By whatever form or name, a college union is an organization offering a variety of programs, activities, services, and facilities that, when taken together, represent a well-considered plan for the community life of the college.
