Chet and Hilda Claire Student-Athlete Lounge

The Chet and Hilda Claire Student-Athlete Lounge, dedicated in August 2018, was made possible by Westminster alumni Chester (Chet) and Hilda Claire, members of the College’s Class of 1949.

The lounge, located just inside the main entrance of Memorial Field House, has quickly become a comfortable retreat where Westminster student-athletes can gather, study, eat and relax.

The space includes two flat screen televisions: one features an all-time scrolling list of student-athletes that have earned top academic honors, while the other can be used as a projection screen for students to view campus-wide announcements, watch film or even collaborate on assignments.

The lounge offers ample outlets so that students will be able to recharge their electronic devices. The furniture, all impressively embroidered with the College's logo, includes comfortable chairs and couches, a coffee table with an engraved Titan logo, and a high-top table. Two large Titan logos are stationed in the room with energy-efficient blue lights glowing proudly.

The lounge is not just a comfortable and inviting place to hang out, but also a place to appreciate the founders of the Towering Titan Organization (TTO) and celebrate the history of Westminster athletics. One of the walls has a remarkable display of the history of the TTO, with photos of past and present student-athletes presented within the design.
