A Community InvestmentThe west campus complex is a perfect complement to other community venues on campus, including the UNI-Dome and the Gallagher-Bluedorn Performing Arts Center. By becoming a focal point for athletic support and education, the new facility will deepen UNI’s strong sense of community. The McLeod Center will enhance the image of the UNI-Dome and create new usage opportunities. By freeing the UNI-Dome for an additional 90 event days per year, the annual attendance is expected to double.
Economic impact of the McLeod Center
• $20-25 million annually
• Doubled annual attendance of UNI-Dome
• 370,000 visitors per year
The addition of McLeod Center to the west campus complex will continue UNI’s dedication to student needs. It will provide a new home for men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball, as well as a performance venue for wrestling. In addition, it will significantly increase available event space in the community.
