Ok, as an alum, I gotta admit I was a little sad from a nostalgic standpoint to see Cole Field House being demolished…
However, keeping the frame was a nice tribute to the past, while what they are building there is an amazing testament to the future.
I think one of the coolest things about Maryland is how they integrate programs/students with different majors - like with QUEST Honors program that has business students, engineering students and CMNS students learning to work together to get the best outcome for products and problem-solving.
The five minute video in the article about Cole Field House plans is well worth watching. It starts with the football/athletics, but then expands into entrepreneurship, physical therapy, sports medicine…it’s just incredible and very exciting.
