Construction is underway! The Campbell Sports Center, the flagship of Columbia's athletic renewal. The first new athletics building since the Marcellus Hartley Dodge Physical Fitness Center was built in the mid-1970s, will be the new cornerstone of the revitalized Baker Athletics Complex.
The plans for a signature presence at 218th Street and Broadway send a powerful message—to student-athletes, to coaches, to the campus community, to alumni and to the sporting public—about Columbia's commitment to athletics. The Campbell Sports Center will have a tangible, immediate impact on the athletics program.
The Campbell Sports Center will offer student-athletes and coaches what they need to achieve excellence: a state-of-the-art facility featuring a theatre-style meeting room, conference rooms, a strength-and-conditioning center, a student-athlete lounge and study center, a hospitality pavilion, and coaches' offices. The Campbell Sports Center will foster Columbia spirit and transform the student-athlete experience by creating an attractive year-round hub for student-athletes, coaches, staff, and administrators.
As The Campbell Sports Center celebrates our teams, it also honors one of our most accomplished athletics alumni: the captain of the 1961 Ivy League Champion football Lions, former Columbia head football coach, “Coach of Silicon Valley,” and Chair of the University Trustees, William V. Campbell '62CC.
We are thrilled to have broken ground on this historic initiative!
