Information Services

The Information Centers, located in the main lobby of the Student Commons, and the entry lobby of Hunton Student Center can answer almost any VCU related question, and connect callers to various departments. The student information assistants have complete access to a campus and city-wide database, university phone lists, and current activity information.

Literature racks are available on a first come first serve basis for distributing flyers and brochures for both University and private organizations or events.
