It’s Flashback Friday! Each Friday we will include
historical facts about the college in The Dome, on Facebook and
Twitter. Flashback Fridays are another part of our yearlong
Sesquicentennial celebration, which culminates in 2020 when Canisius turns 150
years old.
Flashback to September 1969 – The long wait for a campus athletic facility ended in September of 1969 when Canisius opened a newly-constructed $2.5 million physical education complex housed on the eight-acre property at Main Street and Delavan Avenue.
