MSUM Student Life Student Life at Minnesota State University Moorhead! Follow on Twitter and visit DragonCentral for more fun happenings! Get Active! Get Involved!

Get Connected! We can help you do just that! The Student Union and Activities at Minnesota State University Moorhead is more than a place to hold meetings or grab a bite to eat or attend events. It’s great for all of those things, but your student union is so much more. It’s a place where you get to be more than a student—you can be a writer, a leader, an activist, an employee, an artist, or anything, really. You can connect with other students who share your ideas, passions and goals through organizations, programs and activities. Plus, our staff members are here to support you in whatever you pursue! The Comstock Memorial Union is more than a building. You’re so much more than a student. See how you can get active, get connected and get involved in student life at MSUM. Visit DragonCentral at www.mnstate.edu/dragoncentral for upcoming events, student organizations, and to track your involvement. This is your MSUM experience - make the most of it! Brief History:
From the CMU's very beginning, students were instrumental in creating a student center for Minnesota State University Moorhead. Students in the mid-1950s began making concerted fund-raising efforts to build a space that could serve as the "living room" of the campus. In 1961, MSUM students began paying a $5 fee per academic quarter for the student union, however construction on the CMU did not start until April of 1966. In other words, even though the CMU would not be built by the time many of the students voting for a fee increase had graduated, students thought having a union was important enough for future generations of Minnesota State University Moorhead students and decided to help fund the CMU. The CMU's doors opened on April 24th, 1967. We invite you to become part of the Student Union and Activities community by posting or commenting.
