STUDENT UNION The new Student Union which will serve as the heart of the campus. The site was designed specifically to meet the needs of SWC students and complete their campus experience, so it includes a variety of engaging outdoor spaces. The main plaza was designed to host large gatherings including festivals, events, and speeches while also providing smaller places that are more removed so that students can relax and study. A large bosque containing sixteen shade trees anchors one side of the plaza and provides much needed shade. The remainder of the site is comprised of a roof deck designed to host small events, an herb garden, a plaza overlooking the bosque, a veteran garden, multiple patios for outdoor dining, and a dedicated lawn games space for students to recreate.
