About Commons Center
The Commons Center is the hub of The Commons. Located on the Peabody side of campus, the building includes a main dining hall, private dining rooms for small faculty-student groups, community space for student programs and activities, an academic support center, a campus market and cafe, group study spaces, exercise space, a mail center, and offices for the Dean of the Commons and staff.
The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System, developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), has certified that The Commons Center meets a suite of standards for environmentally sustainable construction.
