The Indiana University Memorial Union



Since it’s inception, The Indiana University Memorial Union has served as a central hub for both faculty and student life on Indiana University’s campus. Inside the Union, there is a wide range in services, restaurants, and activities all housed within one building, with everything from a hair salon to Burger King. However, the Indiana University Memorial Union hasn’t always been burger chains and salons. Click on the picture below to access an interactive map to learn more about the history of the Union.

While the Union doesn’t look dramatically different, there have been many renovations and extensions made over the years. Click on the photo below to view a comparison between the Union when it was first built and now.


 Today, the Union serves as a place for the IU community and visitors to play, eat, study, and relax. Inside the Union, there are dozens of shops, restaurants, and recreation areas that are all used on a daily basis by students, faculty, and visitors.
