I am not anti-baseball, but ... If that happened, they could drop the baseball fundraising effort ($4-5 million) and instead build a new softball field where the baseball field is. That would a) free up a student tailgate area (I don't think there is one now) where the softball field is now, b) allow a larger west-side Yard since the softball field is smaller than the baseball field, c) create an opportunity for more parking, d) eliminate spending money to rehab the existing softball field, which needs it, and e) grant some flexibility meeting Title IX whatever else NIU does.
