Located on the third floor of the historic Michigan Union, Spectrum Center is a lively drop-in space for U-M's LGBTQIA2S+ communities and allies. Windows along two external walls welcome ample natural light and provide enjoyable views of South State and South University. We've filled our space with color, student art, seating and work areas, books and activities, and more. We're also home to the Jim Toy Library and a David Bohnett Foundation Cybercenter, which provides state of the art computing to the LGBT community.
