THE RED AND CHARLINE MCCOMBS CAMPUS CENTER – an $11.2 million facility – is Southwestern University's "family room." Dedicated in 1998 – and made possible by a gift from alumni Red and Charline McCombs of San Antonio, The Vivian L. Smith Foundation of Houston, the J.E. and L.E. Mabee Foundation of Tulsa, and Charles and Elizabeth Prothro and the Perkins-Prothro Foundations of Wichita Falls – the 63,000 square-foot center includes campus dining facilities, a ballroom, student organization offices, the University Bookstore, Gender Awareness Center, the Post Office, offices for the Vice President for Student Life, Student Activities, Diversity Education, Religious Life, the Associate Vice President and Dean of Students and displays of the McCombs Americana Collection. Mr. McCombs chaired the University's Board of Trustees from 1992 to 2000 and continues to serve as a trustee.
The McCombs Campus Center also hosts campus events including movies, concerts, town hall meetings, academic conferences, and lectures.
