Athens State University is excited to announce the launch of its new gift shop and campus store, Pillar & Paw. The store is open to the community and offers a wide selection of collegiate merchandise and other gifts.
Pillar & Paw is designed to be more than just a place to shop for Athens State gear – the store also offers a large selection of gifts and goodies for all ages, making it the perfect destination to stop by to pick something up for special occasions or just for fun!
Pillar & Paw will also serve as the pick-up and drop-off location for the new online bookstore, operated by eCampus.com. eCampus.com is a premier online retailer of textbooks and digital course materials and partnered with Athens State in Summer 2025. Through eCampus.com, students have the ability to order their textbooks online and ship their orders directly to Pillar & Paw for free in-store pickup.
Pillar & Paw is now open in the old bookstore location on the ground floor of the Sandridge Student Center. Construction will begin soon for the store’s permanent location in the Bear Cave, located on the top floor of the Sandridge Student Center. Plans for the new location also include an adjoining coffee shop, appropriately named “heBREW’S” on behalf of Athens State’s mascot, Hebrew the Bear.
The store is currently open Monday – Friday from 9:00 am – 4:30 pm.
