Involvement Centers
Spaces for Students, Community, and Connection
The Clarence L. Barney Jr. African American Cultural Center (AACC) and Women’s Center are spaces where LSU students gather, connect, study, hold meetings, host programs, and access resources that support their LSU experience.
How to Use the Centers
Meeting, gathering, and event spaces are available for Registered Student Organizations.
Spaces can be used for programs, conversations, educational opportunities, community-building activities, and other experiences that bring students together.
LSU departments may also request to use the centers for student outreach and engagement.
Campus Life offers resources that can support student organizations, including involvement opportunities and leadership development opportunities.
The Centers offer space and resources to support studying, learning, academic success, and your continued development.
Our team can connect you to university resources and information that support your wellbeing, including a referral to LSU Cares.

How to Reserve a Space in the Centers
Submit requests at least two weeks before your meeting or event. Submitting early gives Campus Life time to review your request, confirm availability, and coordinate any necessary arrangements.
Recurring requests and after-hours reservation times are allowed and are subject to availability; just include all dates and times in your initial request for consideration.
Submitting your event is a request for the space. Your reservation is not confirmed until your TigerLink event has been reviewed and approved and you receive confirmation from Campus Life. Please do not advertise the Center as your confirmed event location until your reservation has been approved.
