Santos Manuel Student Union

Santos Manuel Student Union is a three-story campus building at California State University San Bernardino spanning about 120,000 square feet. It houses dining areas, conference rooms, recreational facilities including bowling lanes, study spaces, and a bookstore.

The building underwent a major renovation in 2022 that significantly expanded its meeting and entertainment spaces for students. This modernization was designed to better serve the growing needs of the campus community.

The building is named after Santos Manuel, a Native American leader who protected his community during difficult times for indigenous peoples in Southern California. This namesake serves as a daily reminder of the region's indigenous heritage and its importance to campus life.

The building is accessible during regular campus hours and offers a range of activities from dining to recreation. Visiting during off-peak times helps you explore the space comfortably without crowds.

The third floor contains seven specialized centers that support different student communities and provide spaces for various cultural and ethnic groups. These centers create places where students from different backgrounds can connect and share experiences.
