Common Spaces

The Business Building offers several common spaces that may be reserved for events.  The Atrium is a 4-story open space that can accommodate up to 225 guests for dinners or presentations.  The Foyer is adjacent to the Atrium space and is located just outside the Auditorium, making it a common site for receptions.

Student Groups

Student groups wishing to reserve space in and around the Business Building must do so through the Student Affairs Office at the HUB.  Student Affairs is located in 125 HUB and can be contacted at 865-7973 or by email to hubevents@psu.edu.  The staff at the HUB will put you in touch with the RIIT Group to confirm the space, but will first assist you with making sure all other University requirements for student events and the use of University spaces are met.
