ONU Center for Student Success reimagined at Heterick Memorial Library

Posted by Staff on Monday, February 10, 2025

Provided by Ohio Northern University

Ohio Northern University students returning to campus from winter break received a warm welcome to the new home of the Center for Student Success—an expansive, beautifully-renovated space on the second floor of Heterick Memorial Library.

The thoughtfully-reimagined space houses under one roof important support services, including the Polar Career Center, Testing Center, Writing Center, Accessibility Services and Global Initiatives. Additionally, the library’s second floor now aesthetically matches the first floor and provides expanded areas for students to collaborate on group projects and study together or individually.

ONU held a dedication ceremony for the Center for Student Success on Friday, February 7, 2025, honoring the many donors who generously supported the project, including lead donors Judith Mifsud, BSEd ’70, and Oscar Mifsud, BSBA ’70.
