ConocoPhillips OSU Alumni Center was completed in 2005, near historic Old Central, where today it welcomes OSU friends and family to a wide range of events. The 52,000 square foot facility located on the historic campus quad across the street from the Student Union includes Southwestern Legacy Hall, an open, dramatic space that will inspire students, faculty, alumni and visitors as it communicates the history and spirit of OSU with historical displays. Because the center is near the heart of campus, its within easy walking distance of academic buildings, performing arts attractions, the Atherton Hotel, and athletic facilities. Most of the entire first floor is public space rentable to anyone.
