DEAN WILLIAM TATE STUDENT CENTER

As early as 1946, William Tate, dean of men at UGA, expressed a need for a new student center, as the number and variety of student activities had outgrown the capacity of the current facility, Memorial Hall. It was 23 years before planning for Phase I of the center would commence and another 12 years of development before the first bits of earth were moved on the

site adjacent to Sanford Stadium. University officials, in consultation with the Board of Regents, decided that the new student center would be named in memory of the beloved administrator who had first envisioned it. Dean Tate had passed away the year before. On October 20, 1983, the Dean William Tate Student Center was dedicated and officially opened. The student center was built for the benefit of the entire University community and quickly became the “heart” of student activity on campus as well as the home of the Department of Student Activities (now known as the Department of Campus Life). For more than two decades, the many programs and services housed within Tate have been designed to meet the social, cultural and recreational needs of UGA’s student body. The $58-million Tate Student Center Expansion opened its doors to the University community on June 1, 2009. Incoming first-year students and their parents were among the first to see the new facility as part of orientation. With nearly 200,000 square feet of space, the Tate Student Center is among the finest facilities of its kind and stands ready to be a point of pride for current and future generations of UGA students.
