The MU Basement

The MU Basement is an 8,500 sq. ft. recreation facility located beneath the Commons at Oregon State University. Included among its attractions are bowling, billiards, video games, and a new TV lounge with a big screen TV. It services the University population as well as the surrounding community.

The Basement along with the upstairs Commons, recently underwent a complete remodel. This resulted in a pleasant, smoke-free atmosphere for family and student alike.
