Points of Interest
Law Campus
The Law Campus at St. Mary’s is composed of four buildings: Ernest A. Raba Law Building (LF), Law Classrooms Building (LC), Law Administration Building, and the Sarita Kenedy East Law Library (LL).
Historic St. Louis Hall
Opened in 1894, St. Louis Hall was the first building constructed at the current campus. This building has been preserved and updated to serve as a center for university departments, faculty, and classrooms. Learn more about our history by viewing a historical timeline on the 1st floor.
Assumption Chapel
Located in Reinbolt Hall, Assumption Chapel has served as the main university chapel since 1908. It is open all day and accessible via the outdoor staircase or the side elevator. If you need a moment of prayer or silence in your day, feel free to stop in.
Barrett Memorial Bell Tower
The 100 foot bell tower, a centerpiece of the St. Mary’s campus since 2007, serves as a gathering space for the university community. If you take a close look, you will find the school’s alma mater imprinted on one of the columns.
University Center
Built in 1992, the University Center serves as the “living room” of the campus with many meeting areas for students. It is also home to dining facilities, university bookstore, student life, and administrative offices. An information desk is also located near the entrance.
