The Barry B. Thompson Student Center (TSC) was built in 1994, and has been the go-to place for Tarleton gear, textbooks, and recreation since its inception. The TSC is a great place for students to enjoy a cup of coffee, relax between classes, play some ping-pong, or grab the only Chick-Fil-A sandwiches and nuggets in Stephenville.
