          This building really adds to the college experience and thrust the old campus into the current century and beyond! This will stand out in any campus tour for future students and gives BU something to build on! Now on to the new fieldhouse!

            Awesome. I think that graduates over the last 20 years or so are saying "Why couldn't that have been there when I was in school?". I know I am.

              I just got back from the dedication ceremony. The place is absolutely unbelievable, I just can't get over it. I'm really glad I get to enjoy it until May when I graduate and I can't see how it won't help get even more students on The Hilltop. Great job by everyone involved.

                  I one of those who was saying the same thing. I even emailed my brother a link so he can show it to my nephew who I am trying to recruit to attend BU. I'm spinning in it as BU Country Club. All they need are a few Jacuzzis, move the golf course closer and add some tennis courts on campus.

                    I didn't even feel like I was at Bradley when I was in it....

                    Wow...

                    Something that Bradley can really be proud of for years to come

                    keep up this Bradleyanism

                      There are tennis courts on campus, right across from the Markin Center. They're called the Markin Tennis Courts.

                        They were not there 20 years ago! Turn Bradley Park to a 9 hole golf course and we are set.

                          It does have frisbee golf set up... Does that count?

                              It should be noted that even if Alumni, faculty and staff have to pay a little fee next yr, it should be a lot less than a yearly membership to Landmark or the Riverplex. You can get virtually the same experience or better at the Markin than those 2 places. Well, except for parking during the weekdays.

                                The two do seem to go hand-in-hand....err...allegedly.
