Dowd Student Center
A constant hub of activity, the Dowd Student Center transforms the heart of campus, elevates the dining program, enhances educational programming, and fosters community.
The Dowd Student Center has been a huge asset for our students and teachers. We knew the space would be multifaceted; and as it turns out, it has been crucial in our ability to open school with smaller, socially distanced classroom pods.
