The Commons For a Changing Living and Learning Environment The University Centers first initiative is the Idaho Commons project, a 78,000-square-foot facility designed to enhance the University of Idahos residential, living and learning environment. The Commons will be constructed in the heart of campus, adjacent to the University Classroom Center (UCC). With its location at the core of campus, the Commons is expected to become a vital UI academic and social center. |

| With numerous study areas, lounges, meeting rooms and dining facilities, the Commons will offer students and faculty a place to continue their classroom discussions and engage in informal learning long after regular class times have ended. | ![]() |

| The Commons also will allow students,
faculty and staff greater access to key university
programs and services without having to leave their
routine activities at the heart of campus. In addition to
its many gathering areas, the Commons will house ASUI
student government, student organizations, classrooms,
computer labs, retail outlets and a copy center. Construction will begin in 1998 and be complete by 2000. |
