Newman University resources for students

As the semester continues, we want to ensure that Newman University students know how to access various resources available to them on campus.

Jet Resource Hub

The Jets Resource Hub is a resource center that is available free of cost to students of Newman University. It was established by the Student Government Association and the Bachelor of Social Work program at Newman. It not only provides non-perishable meals and snacks, but also provides resources such as over-the-counter medicines and toiletries, like soaps, toothpaste, feminine hygiene products, toilet paper, etc. All students are welcome to its resources, located in McNeill Hall room 123.
