at Walker Hall opened in 2021 to promote interdisciplinary interactions and build community by serving students and postdoctoral scholars. The Graduate Center houses a variety of spaces including office space, a quiet writing room, a parent study room, informal interaction areas, small meeting rooms and conference rooms for graduate student events. In addition, the Graduate Center will provide access to a variety of graduate student services, including the GradPathways Institute for Professional Development, diversity resources, counseling, and advising. Please see the detailed list of facilities and building tenants below.</p> <h2>Facilities</h2> <ul class="list--accordion"> <li>Meeting Rooms (1003, 1004, 1212, 1136)</li> <li>There are four meeting rooms (Abbasi -1136, Greenwood-Johnson -1003, Lee -1004, Lewin -1212). These rooms accommodate up to six individuals for small meetings. When there is no reservation, graduate students and postdoctoral scholars can use these rooms for shared study (see our shared study guidelines). Each meeting room is equipped with a whiteboard, 55" televisions, and video conferencing soundbars. Please see our <a href="https://gradstudies.sf.ucdavis.edu/graduate-center-facility-use-guidelines"><strong>facility use guidelines</strong></a> for reservation policies and our tiered reservation timelines.</li> <li>Timm Parent Study Room (1202)</li> <li>There is one dedicated parent meeting room that graduate students and postdoctoral scholars with children can reserve at no cost. Drop-in use is available to all graduate students and postdoctoral scholars but prioritized for student parents. This room is equipped with a whiteboard, two 55" televisions (one for children, HDMI available for devices), and one video conferencing soundbar. Additionally, there is a small children's table/play area. UC Davis coloring pages + crayons are also provided. Please see our <a href="https://grad.ucdavis.edu/graduate-center-facility-use-guidelines"><strong>facility use guidelines</strong></a> for reservation policies and our tiered reservation timelines. <span><span><span><span><span><span><span>Parents/Guardians are responsible for their children’s safety and behavior. </span></span></span><strong><span><span>Do not leave your children unattended</span></span></strong><span><span><span>. If an unsupervised child</span></span></span></span></span></span></span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span> </span></span></span></span></span></span></span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>comes to the attention of building personnel, UC Davis Police will be contacted. <strong>No childcare is provided.</strong> </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></li> <li>Conference Rooms (1130, 1220, 1230)</li> <li>There are three conference rooms (Gibeling -1220, West -1230, and East -1130) that are available for reservations.

The LCS will be reserved for students and postdocs participating in the following cohort-based programs to enhance their professional and career development: Professors for the Future; Leaders for the Future; and Graduate Writing Fellows. This space will not be available for online reservation. For more information about the use of this space, please contact the <a href="https://grad.ucdavis.edu/professional-development/gradpathways">GradPathways Institute for Professional Development</a>.</li> <li>Graduate Commons (1210)</li> <li>The Graduate Commons serves as the heart of the Graduate Center, providing community space for up to 100 individuals. Mixed seating options provide ample space for studying, small informal meetings, and social interaction. A public microwave is also available for use.
