Hilberry rooms
Known for their high ceilings and spacious design, the Hilberry Rooms are named after Wayne State's fourth president, Clarence B. Hilberry, who served as University President from 1953-1965. This versatile event space is commonly used for workshops, career fairs, lectures, and banquets. Hilberry A, B, and C can be combined for events requiring more space. Hilberry D features floor-to-ceiling windows with electronic shades and side entry from Hilberry E. Hilberry E and F can be reserved together or separately and exits into the building's second floor south lounge.
