Murray D. Lincoln Campus Center, is a skyscraper in Amherst, Massachusetts that is built in the modernist style. The building and attached parking garage were designed by Marcel Breuer. The building also hosts The Campus Center Hotel on the upper floors of the building. The hotel consists of 116 rooms. Between 2008 and 2009, the hotel was renovated by Eastern General Contractors of Springfield, MA under the direction of Architectural firm Gensler.

The Center is named after Murray D Lincoln who was president of the National Cooperative Business Association from 1941 to 1965, and as a board member of the International Cooperative Alliance, Murray D. Lincoln was a dynamic spokesman for cooperatives in every sphere. He led in forming economic associations - the Ohio Farm Bureau Cooperative Association, an agricultural credit association, a rural electric association, and what is now the Nationwide Insurance organization. As longtime Nationwide president he moved the organization into many areas of people’s needs. He was also the first president of CARE
