Student Union

Mission Statement

The Student Union is the University’s community center. It offers our community a variety of facilities, programs, services, and activities. The Union is a student-centered organization that complements the academic experience of UNF students through a variety of cultural, educational, social, and recreational programs, while providing an engaging learning environment. Our mission at the Student Union is to provide convenient, high-quality facilities and efficient services to support university programs. The building is the community center of campus and provides a shared home for the University, welcoming students, faculty, alumni, staff, parents, and guests. The Union is both a facility and a program designed to enrich campus life and advance the University’s educational mission through formal and informal associations. The Union seeks to create and foster a university community that promotes participatory decision-making, leadership skill sets, and citizenship.

 Unifying the Osprey Experience

Happening in the Student Union

Market Days take place in the heart of campus, the Student Union. Here you can buy anything from henna tattoos to screen printed t-shirts. Bustling and full of energy, Market Days provide a unique opportunity to reach over 16,000 UNF students on the Osprey Plaza. It is a great way for student organizations of all kinds to come on campus and reach our students. We have great success with student organizations and are excited about the ongoing support from both students and the Jacksonville Community. 

Every Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

On Thursday, August 31st at 6 p.m., come flock to the Student Union Game Room to battle for the title of #1 Racer in a high intensity, life altering, game of Mario Kart. Contestants and spectators will be fed a delicious pasta dinner from Al’s Pizza to get the competitive juices flowing. If needed, racers will be given words of encouragement (“Blue Shell!!”) and a tissue to dry their tears upon request.
