The Kerr Lounge is always bustling with activity. Students flock here to study, relax, and hang out with friends. One day you may find yourself sitting in the audience for a lunch-time lecture, and the next you’ll be curled up with your iPad on one of our cozy couches.

Often referred to as the “living room” of OU Law, the Earl M. Sneed Faculty Lounge offers an intimate environment for meetings, luncheons, and other get-togethers.

The David L. Boren Atrium, named for OU’s 13th president and a 1968 OU Law alumnus, is a bright and airy place to relax or study.

Amicus, located on the first floor of the Law Center, offers soups, sandwiches, flatbread pizzas, and a daily hot, home-style meal.

The wood trim and warm tones in the café blend with the overall law school atmosphere. Amicus also features a lounge area and moveable tables, making it a perfect spot to hold a study session or meeting.
