Commuter Resource Center
2007 Community Partner Campaign
Objectives
The Commuter Resource Center is the place where commuter students study, attend events, hang out, and receive information and resources, making the CRC the perfect advertising place for businesses who serve the commuting public.
The Commuter Resource Center is moving to a new 3,200 square foot space in the Student Union at Southern Oregon University. The space is beautiful and will require modular space dividers and new lounge and kitchenette furnishing.
The students of Southern Oregon University have already contributed $21,000 of the $30,000 project costs. Our goal in 2007 is to receive the remaining $9,000 from our Community Partners.
