Students and Scott Center Staff working during a Slow Down session in the Crest Room.

The Crest Room in McCullough is our on-campus location and serves as a place for spiritual observances, meetings for our various student religious organizations, and more casual community-building activities.

The Crest Room features include the following:

  • Big round table upstairs in the balcony that seats 12
  • Balcony lounge area with upholstered furniture
  • Meditation cushions
  • Fridge, microwave, convection oven (but no sink)
Students working at a table and on the floor of the Crest Room.

The Crest Room is used by various student groups for religious observance, so we have a few guidelines we ask you to follow when you are here:

  • Please remove your shoes as this is a shoeless space.
  • Please do not bring food in without staff supervision.

Contact Ellen McKay Jewett at emckay@middlebury.edu if you are interested in scheduling your gathering.
