Copy of Kaimin, 10-01-35, Pg 4.jpg

In the fall of 1935, the first official student union building at the University of Montana-Missoula opened. Twenty years later in 1955, a larger student union called the Lodge opened. In 1968, the University Center that we know today replaced the Lodge. This exhibit illustrates the history of UM’s three student union buildings and features a selection of photographs, pamphlets, and architectural drawings.
