New pickleball and basketball courts, a dog park and a service dog park, and an area with exercise equipment are among the new amenities for students being installed in the area of the south lawn of Millett Hall this summer.
Miami University is investing about $13 million to expand and upgrade student multi-use sports fields at Millett and at Chestnut Fields. Construction has begun on both sites. The Chestnut Field site and the turfed fields at Millett will be complete before fall semester begins.
The remainder of the installation in the Millett area will be complete by the end of September. Visit the Arena Updates website for more information.
