In the Fall of 2022, a $4.5 million renovation of the Bowling and Billiards Center (BBC) was completed. The former event room in the building’s south end was transformed into an arena and gaming area for the Redbird Esports program. Additionally, as part of the project, the entire building received updates including a new Welcome Desk, offices and meeting spaces, all-gender restrooms, and modernized branding and graphics.
