The Hudson Center serves as a satellite campus for UWRF. It is located about 10 miles to the NW from River Falls proper. It serves as the main home for the campus MBA program as well as the Adult Degree Completion program, both College of Business programs. Four classrooms are in operation averaging about 25-30 students each; used heavily M-H evenings. In addition, the space serves as space for the Hudson School District and other entities during the day. On weekends, the Hudson Center is home to a variety of programs conducted by the College of Education and Professional Studies.

Reason for excluding farm:
The campus has two Laboratory Farms. The Campus Lab Farm is included in the Institutional Boundary and is approximately 130 acres in size and supports primarily our Horse enterprise. Another approximately 40 acres supports our Horticulture as well as Environmental Science and Forestry Projects.
The Mann Valley Farm is located 2.5 miles NW of town is approximately 475 acres and is home to our beef, dairy, sheep, and swine operations.
A Farms Master Plan was began in 2013 and is anticipated to be wrapped up in early 2014. It should guide all future evolution of the farms and their programs with an approximate 20 year horizon. There is a strong sustainability theme weaved into the overall plan, including renewable energy (solar, wind), storing stormwater and land use management.
