MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Memphis Athletics has received an anonymous $5 million commitment towards its transformational Student-Athlete Success Center, which will be the first phase of the 'Tiger Park' integrated academic and athletic facilities master plan.
The Student-Athlete Success Center, part of the #MemphisRising vision for the 2020s, is an innovative multi-purpose facility that supports all Memphis student-athletes by consolidating academic, nutrition, mental health and career and leadership skill development services on the University's Park Avenue campus.
In addition, this summer the University will release a request for proposal for a 500-plus bed, apartment-style housing development, located in the heart of Tiger Park just feet from the Student-Athlete Success Center.
