Carolina fosters a culture of engagement and a commitment to service. Established in 1860, the Campus Y now engages about 2,000 student volunteers in 30 student social justice organizations. The Campus Y houses the CUBE, the University’s social innovation incubator. The CUBE program provides selected students, faculty and staff with resources to build successful enterprises while tackling complex social programs; special benefits include a year of seed funding, professional mentoring and capacity-building workshops.
Originally completed in 1907 as a home for student religious activities, the French-Gothic YMCA Building was renovated extensively and reopened in 2007. Designed by architect Frank Milburn, the building originally contained a library/reading room, editorial rooms, a general social meeting place for students, classrooms for Bible study, and an auditorium for association meetings. No longer formally linked to the YMCA, the Campus Y has sponsored student activities for social justice, improved race relations, and world peace since the 1960s.
