THIS is how you recruit athletes who wouldn't otherwise consider your program; show them you're invested! I understand that the new weight room is shared by all sports, but it's better than many major D1 rooms. Good job NAU 👍

Construction on this building began about 2 years ago. Coincidentally at the same time COVID hit. NAU's response to the pandemic was to make massive cuts to the staff and department budgets. While at the same time beginning construction on a $47M sports complex. This was the 5th sports complex on campus. It's just a bad look.

@ashhallberg7632 2 жыл бұрын

Sure it's a great and nice looking center. But what needs to be considered is that there are many buildings at NAU with asbestos that desperately need to be renovated. There are dorms with it, academic buildings, and other areas across campus. There are many buildings that need the help that the money could've gone too. One such example is the music building where they have elevators from who knows when and stop causing students to become stuck in them. There are also the many professors that were laid off where their pay most likely went to this center. I understand that many may want this. But there are other areas on campus that really need that money too.

Such a waste of funds. While this was being built, teachers were randomly told that they wouldn't have a job anymore or health insurance, during the heart of the pandemic. There's already a private area is the main school gym for student athletes. At the end of the day, university is a place for learning, not for sports. We shouldn't even have shorts apart of college in the United States as much as we do, because that's a part of why education costs so much in the US, let alone pick sports over higher learning.
