Indiana Memorial Union, Student union building at Indiana University, United States
The Indiana Memorial Union is a large student center at Indiana University that houses numerous facilities for students and visitors to use daily. It contains restaurants, a bookstore, a bowling alley, conference spaces, and hotel accommodations with guest rooms and meeting areas.
Construction began in 1931 under architects Granger and Bollenbacher, with the building officially opening in 1932. A significant addition came with the Biddle Hotel and Conference Center in 1960, which expanded the facility for guests and meetings.
The Memorial Room displays the Golden Book with names of community members who served in military conflicts since the War of 1812. This space serves as a place of remembrance for those connected to the university.
The building sits at the center of campus and is easily accessible from various parts of the university grounds. Visitors can enjoy most facilities throughout the day, making it a central gathering place for students and guests alike.
The facility hosts thousands of events each year and is home to one of the oldest college film programs in America, which began in 1914 and continues today. This unbroken tradition of screenings makes it a remarkable gathering place beyond its everyday functions.
