The university has done well in remodeling and making things more up to date. It looked great. I remember being in it 1979 to watch Amy Grant, Carmen, and others perform.

It’s gigantic with lots of parking which is overwhelming but necessary. The staff were helpful and kept everyone organized, so things flowed as smoothly as possible with that many people at that many events (we were there for high school graduation).
