Venue Overview

The Etter-Harbin Alumni Center is a premier venue for events ranging from intimate gatherings to large-scale celebrations, accommodating 55 to 400 guests. With a dedicated staff of 19, we specialize in high-end plated dinners, buffet service, and passed hors d'oeuvres. Our peak availability is in the spring and fall, ensuring your event is hosted during the most desirable times of the year.

We understand the logistics of event planning, which is why we offer comprehensive offsite transportation coordination for weddings and parties. While on-campus parking requires a strategic approach, our team recommends utilizing nearby garages or rideshare services for convenience. We pride ourselves on a formal, attentive service style that ensures every detail is managed with precision and professionalism.
