No matter what the event, there is always something to be learned or a new neighbor meet. Adjacent to the residential communities is The Commons. The Creekside Cafeteria and the Bear Necessities convenience store are located there. So is the University Housing, Dining, and Conference Services Office. The Commons is a social gathering and an information center.
Some residents even get their mail there.
It offers things such as a large screen television, meeting rooms, a fireplace, snacks and beverages, as well as information about student housing and the Anchorage community. The Commons has a Fitness Center and a new computer lab with both Macintoshes and PCs. The Alaskan summer offers long daylight hours to seek out adventure and explore the state. Student Housing is available for students interested in attending summer courses. A summer view of the Main Apartment Complex quad.
