Since opening in fall semester 2021, the Yale Schwarzman Center (YSC) has transformed the University by providing for the first time a dedicated center for campus life and the arts, open to students, staff, and faculty. Located in the heart of campus, the 88,300-square-foot complex encompasses Commons and three floors of the adjacent Memorial Hall — both built in 1901 — as well as new spaces beneath Hewitt Quadrangle, today reimagined as performance, exhibition, meeting, dining, and gathering spaces.
