Description
This is an image of the not yet completed gymnasium housed in Lake Forest College's 1960s Sports Center, designed by architect Edward Dart.
"Inaugurated by the Chicago Bulls summer camp in 1968, the gymnasium now serves as the practice facility and site for home contests for Lake Forest College's Division III basketball and volleyball teams" (Dustin Magill on Sports Center in "Lake Forest College: A Guide to the Campus," 2007, pp. 62-64).
"During the 1960's, as the student body was rapidly growing, there was a movement to increase athletics on campus. A commitee, headed by trustee Elliott Donnelley, funded the construction of Lake Forest College's Sports Center. Completed in 1968, the Sports Center was the largest building that Lake Forest College built during the decade" (Dustin Magill on Sports Center in "Lake Forest College: A Guide to the Campus," 2007, pp. 62-64).
