Student Life

Lowman Student Center (LSC)

The LSC is a great place to grab some lunch, hang out with friends, or get some study time in between classes. Grab a seat on the stair-step benches, enjoy the view out of the floor-length windows overlooking The Frank Parker Plaza, and get a first-hand look at campus life from the comforts of an air-conditioned building 鈥� a much needed rescue from the Texas summer heat!

The LSC houses great food options at the on the first floor, or stop by the second floor Starbucks for your caffeine fix. Stop by the for all your Bearkat gear!

SHSU Traditions

Traditions are an integral part of campus life at Sam Houston State and help define our culture. From Homecoming to the Tree of Light ceremony, these long-standing traditions can be shared across generations and bring Bearkats together with a sense of pride and belonging. These enduring traditions provide us with a sense of timelessness and continuity; whether it is attending every Bearkat football game, paying homage to members of our Bearkat community who have passed away at the annual Raven鈥檚 Call or marching to Sam Houston鈥檚 gravesite in Oakwood Cemetery on Texas Independence Day, these traditions are entrenched in student life and allow us to connect with our classmates, alumni and alma mater.
