Thanks to initial gifts from Valparaiso University alumni and friends, the 202,000-square-foot Harre Union was dedicated on Jan. 31, 2009.

Fundraising continues for the union, which has a total project cost of $74 million.

Your gift to the union supports:

• student development of leadership, teamwork and social skills.
• the residential community education that distinguishes Valparaiso University,
• allowing the interaction of students, faculty and staff.
• Valpo’s ability to produce graduates who become leaders in their churches, professions and communities.

 The union accomplishes the above by providing:

• space for the more than 100 student organizations on campus.
• an international and multicultural suite.
• a large central dining hall where students, faculty and staff share meals.
• a banquet/multipurpose room that seats 500 people for banquets or 1,000 for lectures.
• an office suite for the Career Center.
• a convenience store.
• a post office.
• a mailbox for each student on campus, and
• a bookstore that also carries Valpo merchandise for alumni.

Make a gift to the union today.
