Athletics Phase II

See the progress.

A Grinnell College education produces strong, confident, well-rounded citizens who excel in their chosen walks of life and who contribute to society in a myriad of ways. It nurtures and challenges students to higher planes of physical acuity and mental fitness. The learning experience is built upon an educational philosophy that provides students with an environment of immense choice, close mentorship and diverse resources that, collectively, enable the aspirations of every student.

Knowing that a true liberal arts education develops both a sound mind and a sound body, Grinnell College is in the midst of constructing Phase II of the Athletic and Fitness Center, which includes a natatorium and a field house. Scheduled to be completed in 2010, these facilities will complete a world class athletic and fitness center that is consistent with the educational philosophy of Grinnell to provide students an environment of immense choice and diverse resources that enable their every aspiration.
