Surplus Center Pop-up Shop Recap

The UNLV Surplus Center hosted an indoor community pop-up shop and donation drive on Saturday, April 30. The event was the most successful to date! Throughout the day, vendors and patrons enjoyed chatting, listening to some cool tunes, and picking up awesome finds.


The Surplus Center would like to thank 91.5 KUNV for their partnership, staff, students, volunteers, and everyone who made this event possible. The Pop-Up Shop and Donation Drive will return soon with all food donations benefiting the UNLV Food Pantry. Stay tuned for more information.

Spotlight on Service

“Thank you Custodial Services Assistant Director Doug McLean and staff for the Lied Library window cleaning. I know there are a few more to finish but what a difference! All-day I have been admiring the clear windows after a couple of years of dusty rain. We appreciate your team so much for arranging this for our building. Thank you!”


- Maggie Farrell, Dean of Libraries

Showing Our Rebel Pride

With another spring semester in the books, we invited staff to bring their teams to the Student Union for a photo opportunity. Several teams stopped by the UNLV letters to show their Rebel Pride last week. Thank you to the cashiering & student accounts, the senior vice president’s office, and the electric shop teams for participating.
