The Physical Education design committee is considering remodeling De Anza College's event area, which includes the football field, track and stands. In additon to sports events, the area hosts college activities including graduation.
Rich Schroeder, Physical Education faculty member, said that plans are indefinite. "It's on the list for Measure C, but that could be a five year period."
Measure C was the last bond issued to De Anza for facility improvements. With the other athletic services already renovated, the football field is next in line. De Anza's track is currently condemned and needs to be replaced, as does the football field.
Kulwant Singh, head of the athletics department, said the Physical Education design committee hasn't met yet. "We need to start mapping out and planning for the area. We need to figure out what we want and how it's going to look."
Athletes and coaches on campus say they are hoping and patiently waiting to see the new athletics area renovated.
