The University's new campus center was dedicated in 1968 and opened with the 111th academic year. The student center was renamed the Degenstein Student Center in honor of major benefactor, Charles Degenstein. Mr. Degenstein was the son-in-law of Sigmund Weis, who was a member of the SU class of 1903 and co-founder of the Weis Markets grocery store chain. Mr. Degenstein was an executive with Weis Markets and his philanthropy played a significant role in the University's development.
