Welcome to The Roost

The Roost is more than the computer labs in Red Wing and Winona -- it's a place for students to study, learn, and be supported in their academic needs. The Roost provides a variety of resources to assist both faculty and students. 

Our mission is to provide equitable and accessible resources to meet diverse student learning needs. We provide impactful, holistic, and growth-focused services, both online and in-person. Through meaningful relationships, we foster inclusive learning communities amongst students, faculty, and staff.

The Roost is open on both campuses and the computers, printers, and study space are available for student use. Please be sure to practice appropriate social distancing when using The Roost. Facilities staff are sanitizing The Roost daily.
