At UHart, we recognize the importance of creating student connections. Outside the classroom, there are many ways to engage with peers in our student centers across campus. Our student centers, University Commons, Gengras Student Union (GSU), and the Konover Great Room are a perfect space to host your next upcoming event.

Empowered Leaders
Empowered Leaders is a program that pushes student organization leaders to be the best that they can be. Our student leaders will learn how to Emerge, Engage, Excite, and Envision a better student life for the UHart community.
To reserve space on-campus, students must complete the Empowered Leaders four step training modules.
