Side Story:

The University decided to rename the BGSU Ice

Arena to the Slater Family Ice Arena after

receiving a very generous donation from Scott

Slater to help with the renovation.

Quoting from an article written by Nolan

Rosenkrans (The Blade Newspaper) …

“Through the years, they have made the

university central to their lives with support

of BGSU hockey and many community

programs such as high school hockey and

figure skating

Mr. Slater said he considered an education the

most valuable asset one can have, while

athletics is important for building character.

“I think together when you have both of them

you have a great chance at being successful at

life.
