“Right now, people are spread
all over campus,” Matherne said.
“It will be nice to know ‘this is
where I go to get my health on.’ ”
“We tried to save some time by
building the softball fields first,”
Davis said. “We would like to get
them into operation as quickly as
possible.”
Davis said the University decid-
ed to build some of the fields ahead
of schedule rather than waiting for
the bonds.
“We had been collecting these
fees for quite some time, so we
had a substantial amount of money
on deposit,” Davis said. “The foot-
ball/soccer fields will hopefully be
completed in the fall of 2011, and
the softball fields will be finished
in the following spring.”
The fee that students pay for the
rec center construction will most
likely continue until the 30-year
bond is paid.

The rec center will be named in
honor of Harold Callais, an entre-
preneur who was a member on the
Board of Regents. He was a great
supporter of higher education and,

“We thought it was very fitting
to honor his memory by naming
the building after him,” Davis said.

“We’ve got a good contractor
here and a good design team,” Da-

how important this is for us, and
we’ve got an ambitious timeline
that we expect to be met.”
