The center provides the campus with an exceptional indoor events facility where, for the first time in TU's history, the entire university community can gather at once. The facility is a physical anchor for the campus that will strengthen TU's community outreach and energize the surrounding community - enabling the university and the city to come together at TU with spirit and pride.
The facility supports the university's commitment to its NCAA Division I athletic program while broadening opportunities for increased revenue and decreased rental expense. The center is the nation's first collegiate arena to provide the latest in permanent two-way fiber-based communication links to the broadcast community through Venue-net, a technology that is the standard for professional sports in North America.
