Please Note: There is no eating at the CTC at this time in accordance with The Hub guidelines. The Husky Den is open for students and guests to eat in.
Store your heavy books and backpack in our lockers. Space is big enough to fit a bike helmet and/or motorcycle helmet. Lockers are day-use check out only and are offered on a first-come first-serve basis but commuter and transfer students have priority. HUB offers long-term locker rentals.
This private room has a chair, table, mini-fridge, soft lighting, a hand-washing station, and power adapters. The station provides a clean and private alternative to using a bathroom or other public space. Use of this space is possible on days when the CTC is closed — check in with the HUB front desk for access.
Have a question but don't know who to ask? Chat with a First-year Network Leader during office hours! These peer leaders can connect you with Networks of other first-year students with similar identities or interests to participate in activities, provide information about key UW resources, and support you in your transition as a new Husky.
Need a place to study? Join us in our study area where you can use the large mobile white boards for problem solving or group work.
Print your papers before class at our Dawg Prints station. We also have technology rentals such as laptops and phone chargers.
The CTC is open for staff and faculty to hold gatherings. We want the space to continue to be used by students, and we welcome additional opportunities for student engagement.
