Named in honor of two long-time supporters, Jan and Dick Weaver, the Weaver Center for Academic Enhancement is dedicated to enriching the academic careers of Racer student athletes.
The Weaver Center was opened on June 30, 1997 with university administration, coaches, athletes and supporters in attendance.
Located on the second floor of Roy Stewart Stadium, the Weaver Center is a spacious facility equipped with individual and group study areas. But the centerpiece of the Weaver Center is its computer lab. Student-athletes use the computers to access the internet for research and complete class projects and papers.
Racer athletes also use the Weaver Center for study hall, which meets four nights a week. During study hall, student-athletes have access to tutors, study groups and computers.
The Weaver Center is open 12 hours per day, six days a week when school is in session and is opening during summer school.
