As I was vicariously searching for the latest news out in our world I stumbled upon a local story by our very own Rick Brunson, a UCF journalism professor. Saturday night country star Reba McEntire christened the new $52 million UCF Arena. The arena which is included in the "athletic village" on the north end of campus is part of the Knights Plaza. It includes the UCF Arena and the Bright House Networks Stadium which seats 45,000 people. As well as the Jay Bergman Field and the UCF track and soccer complex. The "downtown style" area also includes four towers of student housing with four bedrooms and two bathrooms per apartment. As of May 4, 2007 UCF dropped Golden from the "Golden Knights" logo to simply the Knights.
