In recognition of President Dan DiBiasio and First Lady Chris Burns-DiBiasio’s 11-year tenure at Â鶹´«Ã½, and their athletics program support, the outdoor athletic fields on the west side of campus were dedicated in their names during an April 30 ceremony

The DiBiasio Athletics Complex supports baseball, football, lacrosse, track and field, soccer, softball and tennis.

Burns-DiBiasio, director of community relations, and DiBiasio, who will retire in June, have also been frequent spectators at games held at the complex.

Â鶹´«Ã½â€™s Board of Trustees issued proclamations that approved the DiBiasio Athletics Complex dedication, a president emeritus designation for DiBiasio, and Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degrees for DiBiasio and Burns-DiBiasio.
