George Sherman Union

On April 27, 1981, Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm spoke at the GSU. Not only the first black woman elected to Congress, in 1972, she became the first major-party black candidate for US President.

On October 23, 1982, students swung out to the sounds of the Fat City Band at Octoberfest in the George Sherman Union.

Great food served at a couple of restaurants there. The bagels at Rhett 's are superb and Pink Berry 's a blessing.

@Charles river bread co. Make your own sandwich with red pepper pesto , provolone cheese , both kinds of lettuce, and caramelized onion on whole grain ciabatta . Different but delicious!!

If you get a two entree dish from Panda and there's a long line try and eat one of the entrees before checkout to turn it into one entree and a side.

Food, music , places to sit, study spots , too. Just stuff. This place is the living room of the campus. Gam around!

On May 9, 1967, an overhead shot was taken of the outdoor courtyard on the second floor of the GSU, a space now occupied by the Metcalf Ballroom .
