Everything about Coffman Memorial Union totally explained
Coffman Memorial Union (CMU) is the student union (
student center) on the
Minneapolis campus of the
University of Minnesota,
United States. It anchors the south side of
Northrop Mall, on the south side of
Washington Avenue, overlooking the
Mississippi River. It is named for
Lotus Delta Coffman, a University of Minnesota President between
1920 and
1938.
It opened in
1940 and has undergone renovations on several occasions, several of which were widely criticized for altering the exterior. The most recent, and most significant, renovation closed the building between
1999 and
2003. This renovation restored the exterior, thoroughly renovated the interior and greatly expanded the basement floors: which now include the main University of Minnesota Bookstore as well as several new stores, offices and lounges, including the glass "Cube" which sits off Washington Ave.
CMU is operated quasi-independently from the
University of Minnesota, by the
Student Unions & Activities (SUA) Board of Governors. SUA also has a facility on the
Saint Paul campus, the St. Paul Student Center, and on the
Minneapolis West Bank, the West Bank Skyway. CMU is home to the
undergraduate student government - the
Minnesota Student Association, MPAC (Minnesota Programs and Activities Council), which is responsible for planning Homecoming and Spring Jam Activities, along with many other events held on campus, and the
graduate student government
Graduate and Professional Student Association, and the campus
bookstore.
