The CommUNITY Education Center
The CommUNITY Education Center (CEC) is a student resource center that supports the goals of the CommUNITY Education Program. The CEC is in the Clark Wing of Read Residence Center. We provide resources for student staff, student organizations, and students in general to excel in their extracurricular endeavors. Such resources include free color and black and white printing, assorted papers and crafts, materials needed for team building activities and ice breakers, and the physical space for your meeting needs.
This year, the CEC will not hold regular office hours. We are piloting CEC Workshops that will be held every month. Stay tuned to our social media pages for more information. If you are interested in reserving the classroom or the collaboration space, please email Kenneth Brown Jr at kb57@iu.edu.
