Dixie State University marks addition of new facility

Dixie State University is marking the addition of its newest facility, the Human Performance Center, with a two-day celebration.

A dedication ceremony was held yesterday at the HPC located at the intersection of University Avenue and Trailblazer Boulevard.

University officials say the 155,000 square-foot facility brings together all of the areas of DSU’s Health & Human Performance department, including Exercise Science, Population Health, and Recreation & Sport Management.

It will also house the first-ever graduate program in the College of Health Sciences, Master of Athletic Training, as well as provide the space necessary to partner with the University of Utah to offer Physical and Occupational Therapy programs in southern Utah.
