Charles M. Harper Center

On the bottom floor of Harper Center, classrooms C01–C10 seat up to 70 students, while C25 seats up to 130. All classrooms feature state-of-the-art technology to support learning, including projectors, a lectern computer, web-based IP TVs, ceiling speakers, and other features.

Harper Center is home to an outstanding contemporary art collection of more than 500 pieces, featuring works that are bold and thought-provoking. More than 120 artists are represented in the collection, making it one of the most unique collections of contemporary art in the United States.

Students, faculty, and staff have access to two cafés in Harper Center: the Morning Bell, which serves Starbucks coffee and snacks, and the Everett Kovler Café—a popular breakfast and lunch spot on campus.

There are a number of large spaces reserved just for students who desire a quiet space to study. Smaller, group study work spaces are also available for students. The group study rooms each feature a plasma screen you can connect a computer to.

Students have their own space to unwind and gather in Harper Center. A dedicated, 3,530-foot student lounge features couches, pool tables, a small kitchen, televisions, and a station to charge electronics.

Carrying all those finance, economics, and accounting books can be difficult. That’s why we provide students with their own locker—a space conveniently located next to classrooms. The lockers are quite large—big enough to hold a suit.

The atrium in the middle of Harper Center is a favorite gathering spacing for the entire Booth community. Events regularly take place in the Winter Garden, including two globally broadcasted events celebrating a faculty member of ours winning a Nobel Prize.

The Summer Garden is a space on the south entrance of the building. When the weather is nice, students can study and chat on comfortable outdoor patio furniture. A famous work of art, “Ideas of Stone,” resides in the Summer Garden.

A great deal of faculty research is conducted under the auspices of our research centers. Many of these centers reside at Harper Center, including the Polsky Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation at the University of 黑料传送门, the James M. Kilts Center for Marketing, and the Rustandy Center for Social Sector Innovation.

Harper Center is home to many senior leaders, including the dean of the school. Numerous student resource offices are also available, such as our financial aid office.
