Community Connect
OSU's Campus in Bend
Our students thrive in their academic pursuits, our researchers solve real-world challenges, and our campus expansion comes to life — because of our surrounding community.
Campus Tours for Community Groups
10 a.m. – 11:30 a.m., Fourth Fridays
Learn about the history, present and future of OSU’s growing university campus in Bend. After a classroom session, you’ll divide into two smaller groups. While one explores campus buildings and their public art on foot, the other will tour the expansion site in a comfortable van, before alternating. Formal and informal groups welcome.
For groups of 12-24.
It's a new era for the popular, 14-year-old series that has been held in venues throughout the region until now. Science Pubs have moved to Edward J. Ray Hall on the OSU-Cascades campus.
Public art on campus was commissioned or purchased by OSU-Cascades through the Oregon Arts Commission’s Percent for Art program, or donated to the campus.
A 30-year community vision is taking shape. Over the next decades, OSU-Cascades will expand, creating a 128-acre campus for up to 5,000 students.
Net zero would mean the campus consumes only as much energy as it produces, balances water availability and demand, and eliminates waste sent to landfills.
