Wilson Shannon Hall

Shannon Hall, named for Ohio’s first native born governor, Wilson Shannon, is the primary educational facility on campus. Renovated throughout in recent years, Shannon Hall offers many amenities including the Library & Learning Commons, The Reading Room, The Greenlight Café, The 1957 Lounge, Chemistry and Biology Labs, a 250 seat Theater, and many different classroom settings. The original design of the Belmont County official seal, created by Ohio U alumnus Michael Massa, is located at the Shannon Hall entrance.

The Health and Physical Education Center was completed in 1997 and is arguably the finest athletic facility located between Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Columbus, Ohio. The center is the home to OUE’s athletic programs (men’s and women’s basketball, volleyball, men’s and women’s cross country, golf) and also plays host to many high school playoff contests, including the Ohio Valley Athletic Conference (OVAC) championships and the OHSAA sectional and district finals.

The Health and Physical Education Center features a community fitness center component with a wide range of strength and cardiovascular options. The center is also the home of the Exercise Physiology classrooms and labs.

There are many campus life opportunities at OUE. Students can join the Education Club, the History Club, the National Communication Association, Nerd Club, Rotaract or Zasshi. OUE also offers varsity sports, intramural activities, a Theater department and countless volunteer opportunities on campus.
