 The Koeppel Student Center is located on the north side of campus, between the [[admissions_building|Borges Admissions Center]] and [[hansen_hall|Hansen Hall]]. Once known as the Vernon Street Social Center or the Vernon Street Snack Bar, on October 14, 1989 it was dedicated to Bevin Koeppel and Alfred Koeppel, who served on the [[trustees|Board of Trustees]] and made many funding donations to the College over the years. The Koeppel Student Center is located on the north side of campus, between the [[admissions_building|Borges Admissions Center]] and [[hansen_hall|Hansen Hall]].

-Planning for what is now the Koeppel Center began in 1985 in conjunction with the planning of what would become Hansen Hall. The project was designed by Farmington based architectural firm Russell, Gibson, von Dohlen, the same firm that designed renovations for [[mather_hall|Mather Hall]] in 1984. The new building was to serve as a “small satellite student center” which would accommodate the students living in the new dormitory on [[north_campus_hall|North Campus]]. During the 1980s, there were several new construction and renovation projects undertaken by the College to improve the quality of student life. The construction of the new student center and dorm building was expected to decrease congestion and crowding in Mather Hall and enrich the north end of campus.+Planning for what is now the Koeppel Student Center began in 1985 in conjunction with the planning of what would become Hansen Hall.

 The new student center was completed in the spring of 1988, furnishing the residents of the new dormitory with a snack bar just next door. The following fall, the Snack Bar opened for a meal window that coincided with the hours at the other two [[dining_at_trinity|dining]] locations on campus. In addition, a meal plan option was unveiled that allowed students to use their meal cards at the Vernon Street Snack Bar in order to reduce overcrowding in Mather Hall and the [[cave|Cave]]. It was also during this semester that the building was officially dedicated to the Koeppel brothers and an agenda of concerts, conferences, and receptions was devised to take place throughout the 1989-90 school year in the Center. The new student center was completed in the spring of 1988, furnishing the residents of the new dormitory with a snack bar just next door.
