UE Celebrates Grand Reopening of Rademacher Student Lounge

Evansville, Ind. (03/20/2025) — The Rademacher Student Lounge has been transformed with a fresh look and enhanced services for students to enjoy. On Wednesday, the University of Evansville (UE) Office of Residence Life and the Center for Student Engagement held a grand reopening of the newly enhanced space designed for students to relax, connect, and enjoy a variety of recreational activities.

Thanks to a generous gift from Escalade Sports, the renovated lounge now features a new pool table, shuffleboard, ping pong table, foosball, pop-up basketball, and ample casual seating, creating the ultimate student hangout. Throughout the semester, students can access gaming supplies, including pool cues, ping pong paddles, and basketballs, by visiting the Information Desk.

"The Rademacher Student Lounge is an important space for encouraging community and engagement on our campus," said Michael Tessier, Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs & Director of Residence Life. "We are grateful for the generosity of Escalade Sports in making these upgrades possible, and we look forward to seeing students enjoy this dynamic and welcoming environment for years to come."

UE is excited to welcome students back to this revitalized space and celebrate a new beginning.
