The KU Memorial Union serves as KU’s community center. By its nature, it provides an environment in which all voices can be heard and conversations can occur. Through openness, engagement and inclusiveness, the Union supports student aspirations for a better KU and community-at-large. Through its operation of the Kansas Union, the DeBruce Center, KU Dining Services and the KU Bookstore, the Union facilitates community exchange by providing engaging environments and compelling programs for students, staff, faculty, alumni and visitors.
