The C. Charles Jackson Center, proposed in 1997 and dedicated to the Gustavus campus April 8th, 2000 was a $19.4 million dollar project, the most costly project in the college’s history.

The building was named after C. Charles Jackson, a retired donor from Minnetonka whose gifts to the college totaled about $4 million. The 106,000 square foot campus center is now connected to the old Student Union building.
