About Toronto Metropolitan Student Centre

In 1976, The Palin Foundation was incorporated with a mission to create a space for students on the former Ryerson Polytechnic Campus that was fully student governed. Fast forward to 2007 and that was realized in the building of the new Student Campus Centre adjoining the historic Oakham House at the corner of Gould and Church Streets in downtown Toronto. Following the change in institutional name, we’ve updated the name of our building and many of the services we offer here at the Toronto Metropolitan University Student Centre.

The TMUSC is home to student unions, affiliated campus groups, The Eyeopener newspaper, Met Radio, the Good Food Centre, Office of the Ombudsperson, Oakham Café, The Met Campus Pub and a host of rentable venue spaces.

We operate with Five Pillars in mind:

FOOD. The café and pub – affordable meals and healthy choices
EMPLOYMENT. Stable jobs with transparent pay
ADVOCACY. Home to student unions and equity offices
SPACE. Full-service event and meeting rooms
COMMUNITY. Student-run newspaper, radio and campus groups

Thanks for your interest in TMUSC, and we hope to see you on campus.
