The Dive is in a space that used to be occupied by the old Union swimming pool, a handball court, and locker rooms before the Union was remodeled in 1985, hence the name. On Friday and Saturday nights the Dive takes on a dance-club atmosphere and has also been used for talent shows, coffeehouse performances, comedians, improvisation, bands, and other activities. Its central location makes it one of the chief meeting places on campus.
