Originating in 1951 to administer and promote men’s athletics, the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) has evolved into one of the NCAA’s most heralded intercollegiate conferences. The first major step came in 1977, when based on a growing interest, the league reorganized to provide a structure for its women’s programs. Only three years later, lacking a standard competitive division, the league voted to reclassify the entire conference to NCAA Division II. Among its recent enhancements, the PSAC has expanded its membership twice during a four-year span. The first occurred during the 200809 academic year with the addition of full-time members Gannon University and Mercyhurst College, and associate member Long Island University-C.W. Post. On July 1, 2013, Seton Hill University and the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown joined the PSAC. The membership now consists of 18 full-time institutions. All of the league’s full-time members are located within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, which makes the PSAC the largest one-state conference in the NCAA. The league has also grown to share the distinctions as: The largest conference in Division II, the largest football-playing conference in the NCAA, and, with 23, the conference that sponsors the most championships at the Division II level. Although all 18 current institutions are members of Division II, seven league schools also compete at the Division I level in select sports. PSAC schools enroll over 127,000 students and claim over 710,000 alumni, including 483,000 who reside in Pennsylvania. The PSAC is governed by the presidents of the 18 member institutions. It employs a commissioner, an associate and assistant commissioner, and a director of media relations at its headquarters in Lock Haven, Pa.

2014 SEASON PREVIEW

Head Coach Curt Cignetti welcomes back six starters from one of the top overall defenses in Division II talent. A quarterback competition will highlight fall camp, but plenty of other positional battles will also take place. Four players with starting experience return on the offensive line, which looks to be very deep. The Crimson Hawks hope to have one of the top kicking units in the PSAC as both come back this season. Several players could make the kick return game an exciting one this season. QUARTERBACKS

The excitement is back for another season of IUP football as the Crimson Hawks return 10 starters, and 10 more with starting experience, from last year’s 9-2 team. The defense will again be the strong side of the ball with six starters back from a unit that finished fifth in Division II with 15.4 points given up per game. IUP posted two shutouts last season and gave up 14 or less points four additional times. Head coach Curt Cignetti believes that this year’s Crimson Hawks’ defense could be the best he’s seen during his time at IUP.

looks for even more development in fall camp. Looking for playing time, along with Green, are a slew of talented newcomers. Cignetti is excited with the addition of Donte Harrell, a redshirt freshman transfer from TennesseeMartin with excellent vision. Luigi Lista-Brinza, a true freshman from McKees Rocks, had a highly productive high school career and is a very decisive
Other first year players who will fight for time include Shannon Jackson and Chris Temple, who at 5-11 and 225 pounds could also see time at fullback. Nick Dubowski looks to take up the starting fullback mantle after earning starts at the end of last season. Redshirt freshman Rex Pearce had a good spring WIDE RECEIVERS and will add depth. The receiver group is one of the deepest on the team and also one that shows an incredible amount of promise for the upcoming season. Three players return with experience in the system, including senior Drew Carswell and junior Sean McVay, who are the top two returning pass catchers from 2013. In his first year at IUP after transferring from Pitt, Carswell established himself as a big play threat with a 16.4 yard average and a pair of touchdowns on 24 receptions. McVay is excellent out of the slot, snagging 18 passes with three touchdowns a season ago. Senior Salath Williams returns to the field after missing nearly all of last LEFT: Redshirt junior wide receiver Sean McVay - a consistent pass catcher for the Crimson Hawks - will be counted on even more this year with a new quarterback learning the ropes.

year with an injury. He was a big play contributor to the 2012 playoff team when he averaged 18.0 yards on 14 catches. A host of newcomers will also play a role in the IUP passing attack this year, a talented group that features a mix of small and big bodies. Jordan Brown (5-9, 185), Tristan Davis (5-9, 151) and Walt Pegues (5-10, 160) are all true freshmen who will provide speed and quickness to the offense. Miles Williamson (6-4, 195) and Swahneek Brown (6-3, 186) are tall receivers who should mix in well with their fellow freshmen. TIGHT ENDS Kevin Edwards is the most experienced returning tight end after earning increased playing time and seeing action in all 11 games as a true freshman last year. His big game came against Gannon, catching 42 yards worth of passes with a pair touchdowns, the first two of his career. Cignetti likes Edwards’ tough, hardnosed play.
OFFENSIVE LINE The offensive line starts with senior Matt Sasson, who leads a group that has combined for 83 career games and 34 starts. He earned valuable playing time upon stepping on campus, starting at center as a freshman and has 31 career games under his belt. He has also seen time at guard and is versatile enough to play tight end in short yardage situations, but will be counted on as group leader back at his natural center position this fall. Fellow senior Jorge Vicioso started 10 games for the Crimson Hawks last year after transferring from Rutgers in the summer. He’ll

Other linemen with starting experience include senior Bruce Atkins and sophomores Ethan Cooper and Tony Morgante. Atkins has seen time at both tackle spots and has played in 23 career games. Both Cooper and Morgante have seen starts at guard. Newcomer Dan Charmo, brother of former IUP offensive lineman Mike, arrived in the spring and Cignetti was excited with his progression. Sophomores Ed Bier and Matt Reams are improving while true freshmen Jason Inks, Alec Petrillo and Kidus Woldeyes will fight for playing time.
Player Pos. Ht. Wt. 2013 G/S Alexander Berdahl (R-Sr.) LB 5-11 210 1/1 Notes: Started the opener but missed the rest of the season due to injury...Started all 14 games in 2012, leading IUP with 103 tackles while earning first team all-region and All-PSAC West honors...35 career games with 25 starts and 201 total tackles. Dorian Lane (Sr.) LB 6-2 205 11/10 Notes: Started 10 straight games after Berdahl’s injury...Finished second on team with 69 total tackles and had 8.5 tackles-forloss...Had a 39-yard interception return for a touchdown at Seton Hill. Jerell McFadden (R-Sr.) DB 5-10 185 10/10 Notes: Most career starts (32) of any returning player...181 tackles, four interceptions, and 19 pass breakups in three seasons...2012 second team All-PSAC West selection. Shane Meisner (R-Sr.) DL 6-3 260 11/11 Notes: Has most career sacks (13.5) and tackles-for-loss (27) of any returning player...23 starts in two seasons after transferring from Rutgers prior to the 2012 season. Ali Muhammad (Gr.) DL 6-3 234 10/10 Notes: 22 tackles, 2.5 sacks in first season after transferring from Rhode Island...Had two sacks against Seton Hill.
DEFENSIVE LINE Cignetti is pleased with the development of his defensive line this spring and even looks for a big upgrade over last year’s talented unit. Senior Shane Meisner leads the group from his rush end position, putting up consistent numbers (27 TFL, 13.5 sacks) in his two years with the Crimson Hawks after transferring from Rutgers. There will be a battle for playing time on the opposite side, with graduate Ali Muhammad and junior Jordan Batts both to see action. The duo combined for five sacks a year ago. Matthew Mowad – a redshirt freshman who moved over from tight end in the spring – and Buffalo transfer Waylon Fink, will add depth at both end positions. Several players are looking for starting spots on the
13
Matthew Sasson (Sr.) OL 6-2 275 9/8 Notes: Has played in 31 games with 16 career starts...Boasts playing time at multiple positions on offensive line, including nine starts at center as a true freshman...Has blocked for 1000yard rusher each season (De’Antwan Williams in 2012 & 2013; Harvie Tuck in 2011 & 2012). Matt Spegal (Jr.) P 6-0 200 11/11 Notes: 38.9-yard average with seven 50-plus yard punts in his first season as the primary punter in 2013...Identical career average is second all-time in IUP history.

C.J. Jackson, who also saw action as a true freshman a year ago, had a good spring and will look for increased playing time. Cignetti will also look for contributions from Brock DeCicco, a graduate transfer from Wisconsin. He played in 27 games in two years with the Badgers after starting his career at Pitt. Originally from Jefferson Hills, Pa., DeCicco was ranked as one of the top tight ends in the 2009 recruiting class.

interior, highlighted by a pair of transfers in Bryce Gilbert (Wisconsin) and Karon Gibson (Delaware). Jeff Palmer, a former transfer himself who’s now in his third year in the program, improved in the spring and brings experience. Sophomore Derrick Turner, a former walk-on, and freshmen Jemal Averette and Justin Weldon will also battle for playing time. LINEBACKERS Perhaps the strongest linebacking unit in the PSAC is led by seniors Alex Berdahl and Dorian Lane. Berdahl returns to the field after missing all but one game in 2013. He was a first team all-region pick in 2012, when he led the Crimson Hawks with 103 tackles in 14 starts as IUP boasted arguably the top defense in the nation. BELOW: Senior linebacker Dorian Lane - shown here calling out defensive signals against Millersville - had a breakout season as a first year starter in 2013. He’ll team with fellow senior Alex Berdahl this year as possibly the best linebacking corps in the PSAC.
Lane benefited from the Berdahl injury, starting 10 games in his place and earning All-PSAC West honors with 69 tackles and 8.5 tackles-for-loss, in addition to a 39-yard interception return for a touchdown. The two have combined for nearly 300 tackles and 60 games in their careers. First off the bench will be sophomore Kevin Clarke, who also gained valuable experience last year and will push both Berdahl and Lane for playing time. Cignetti will also make sure that freshmen Diamond Jones and Cameron Casciole are thrown into the mix in camp. DEFENSIVE BACKS Senior Jerell McFadden returns to his boundary corner spot, having started 32 games in his IUP career. The veteran is excellent against both the run and the pass, totaling 181 tackles and four interceptions, with an addition 19 pass breakups in three seasons. Cignetti was impressed with the freshman season that Jay Watkins turned in last year,
and thinks he can become a very good PSAC corner as he’ll look to return to the starting lineup at the field spot. Junior Ackeno Robertson will look to fill the role of IUP’s “Star” position in its 4-2-5 alignment after earning valuable playing time a season ago. Steve Franco, who transferred from Akron as a quarterback a season ago, made the move to safety in the spring and impressed. He’ll look to play either the free or strong position with junior Jake Campbell, sophomore Andrew DeGol, and freshmen Kyler Smith, Tahki Turner and Allen Wright competing for time at the other safety spot. Freshmen Chris David and Eric Doe could also see playing time in the defensive backfield. SPECIAL TEAMS The special teams are another strong element for the Crimson Hawks. Both kickers return, including senior placekicker Brett Ullman, who enters the season with a strong shot to break three IUP career
14
records: Points (246, record is 312), field goals (37, record is 47) and extra points (135, record is 155). Ullman is also excellent at kickoffs, posting a total of 61 touchbacks during his three years at IUP. He’s a three-time All-PSAC West pick and earned 2014 preseason All-American honors. Junior Matt Spegal returns for his second year as IUP’s full-time punter, finishing last season with a 38.9 yard average on 41 kicks. He booted seven more than 50 yards while 11 of his punts landed inside the opponent’s 20-yard line and seven were fair catches. Several players have a shot to contribute in the return game, with McVay seeing time on punt returns in 2013 (9.4 yard average) and McFadden showing explosiveness on kickoff returns in 2011 (27.4 average, one touchdown). Jordan Brown, Swahneek Brown and Pegues each had exciting returns in high school and could see time as freshmen this year.

Through three seasons, Cignetti has a record of 28-7, going 16-5 in PSAC West play and 2-1 in the NCAA playoffs. He has a record of 14-3 at home and 14-4 on the road. Cignetti led the Crimson Hawks to a successful season in 2013 with a 9-2 record overall, 5-2 in the PSAC West. IUP was ranked 10th in the preseason AFCA Division II Coaches’ Poll going into the season and remained in the top 25 until late October, where they had been ranked for 18 consecutive weeks.
– who were named Capital One Academic All-America’s. In 2012, the Crimson Hawks were the top defense in the nation, leading Division II in scoring defense (12.5 points per game) and total defense (257.9 yards per game). IUP was also third in the nation in turnover margin with a +21 (1.50 per game).
The rushing offense was also one of the best in the nation, as Tuck teamed with De’Antwan Williams to help IUP rush for 259.3 yards per game, 10th in the nation (as of 12/1). The Crimson Hawks 3,630 net rushing yards broke the singleseason program record of 3,211 set in 1993. IUP averaged 33.6 points and 417.5 yards of total offense. They were also second in the nation in time of possession, keeping the ball an average of 34:16 per contest. The 2012 season also marked Cignetti’s 30th year of coaching.
The Crimson Hawks finished 2012 with a 12-2 overall record, advancing to the Super Region One Championship (NCAA quarterfinals) at Winston-Salem State, ultimately falling to the Rams 21-17. IUP went 6-1 in PSAC West play, with its only loss at then sixthranked California 26-24 on Sept. 22. The record was good for first in the division, earning the right to host East champion Shippensburg in the PSAC “State Game.” The Crimson Hawks would use a 27-10 first half lead in the game en route to a dominating 41-10 victory over the Red Raiders for the program’s first championship game win since 1987. (Note: The “State Game” was not played from 1988-2007) The Crimson Hawks earned the third seed in Super Region One and defeated sixth-seeded Shepherd 27-17 at home in the first round. They’d go on to defeat second-seeded New Haven (CT) on the road in the second round before the loss at top seed Winston-Salem State.
Cignetti boasts a very successful head coaching debut in 2011, leading the Crimson Hawks to a 7-3 overall record, including a 5-2 mark in the strong PSAC West. Hired prior to the 2011 season, Cignetti put together one of the finest seasons for a first-year head coach at IUP since his father, Frank Cignetti, led Indiana to a record of 9-2 and a PSAC Championship in 1986. Cignetti’s first signature win at IUP came in early October, when the Crimson Hawks shut out nationally-ranked Edinboro 19-0 on Homecoming. IUP capped off the season with another impressive victory when the Crimson Hawks trounced PSAC East foe West Chester 34-7 on the road. Under Cignetti’s guidance, eight players received All-PSAC West honors in 2011, including

Under Tortorella, the Crimson Hawks had another nationally-ranked defense in 2013. They ranked fifth in the nation in scoring defense, allowing only 15.4 points per game, including two shutouts in addition to holding opponents under ten points on five occasions. IUP also ranked second in the nation in red zone defense, allowing opponents to score only 56.7 percent of trips into the red zone. Tortorella was the recipient of the 2012 FootballScoop Division II Coordinator of the Year award. He was the architect of a unit that finished 2012 ranked first nationally in total and scoring defense while also ranking third in rushing defense. The Crimson Hawks relied on that success to go 12-2 on the season, winning the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) title and advanced to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division II championships. The Crimson Hawks gave up just 257.9 yards and 12.5 points per game, recording three shutouts and holding opponents to 10 points or fewer four additional times.

Jim Chapin enters his third season as the running backs coach in 2014, adding the title of IUP’s recruiting coordinator this past offseason.
The elder of the IUP coaching staff, Bernie McQuown enters his 28th season as the special teams and defensive ends coach in 2014. McQuown joined the IUP coaching staff in 1987 after establishing a reputation as one of the most successful and highly respected high school coaches in Pennsylvania.
Chaplin coached a rushing attack in 2013 led by first team All-PSAC running back De’Antwan Williams. Williams finished fourth in the PSAC in rushing with 1,347 yards and 18 touchdowns, including a school record 315 yards and three touchdowns in the season finale against Shippensburg. The Crimson Hawks finished third in the PSAC in rushing offense with 216.7 yards per game and second in rushing touchdowns with 32.
McQuown retired in 1998 following 25 years as a guidance counselor at Indiana High School and 32 years overall at the school, including seven as a history instructor. McQuown began his high school coaching career as an assistant at Punxsutawney before embarking on a 28-year run as a head coach on the prep level. He spent three seasons at East Brady (1959-61) followed by four at Kane (1962-65), where he posted a record of 27-6-1.
During the 2012 season, Chapin coached a running attack that featured Harvie Tuck and De’Antwan Williams. Tuck finished third in the PSAC in rushing with 1,660 yards and 16 touchdowns. Williams finished sixth in the PSAC with 1,325 yards rushing with 10 touchdowns. The Hawks finished tenth in the country in rushing yards with 3,630 yards and had 36 rushing touchdowns.
But it was his 21-year stint as head coach at Indiana High School that earned him the most accolades. McQuown was at the helm of the Indiana program from 1966-86, compiling 133 wins against just 56 losses and nine ties. During his final five seasons with the Indians, his teams were 40-10-2. McQuown led two undefeated seasons (1976 and 1985), won three CENPAC championships and three Western Conference titles.
Prior to IUP, Chapin coached at Division III Adrian College for two seasons. In 2011, Chapin coached the wide receivers at Adrian, where he helped orchestrate an offensive unit that led the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association in both total offense and points per game. In addition, Chapin served as Adrian’s special teams coordinator and recruiting coordinator. In 2010, Chapin served as the tight ends and fullbacks coach, while doubling as the director of football operations.
He coached the Big 33 team in 1979 and was named the Pennsylvania Class AAAA Coach of the Year in 1980.
Prior to his tenure with the Bulldogs, Chapin had a one year stint in 2009 as the running backs coach at Southern Tech Prep Academy in Charlotte, N.C.
McQuown graduated from Juniata in 1958 where he was an All-America offensive guard. He and his wife, Barbara, have two daughters, Kathy and Kim, and five grandchildren.
In addition to his collegiate and prep coaching experience, Chapin also coached at the high school level from 2007-2008 at Dexter High School in Dexter, Mich. Chapin is a 2009 graduate of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. He is a native of Troy, Mich, where he attended Troy High School.

Saturday, Nov. 9 • Frank Cignetti Field @ George P. Miller Stadium • Indiana, Pa. Attendance: 2,666 INDIANA, PA – The Crimson Hawks racked up 658 total yards in IUP’s dominating 55-20 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) victory over Gannon on Senior Day at Frank Cignetti Field.
The 378 passing yards all came from the right arm of quarterback Mike Box, who finished 21-of-25 with four touchdowns and one interception. The yardage total was the most by an IUP quarterback since Brian Eyerman threw for 407 against Saginaw Valley State back in 2001. It was also the first 300-yard passing day for an IUP quarterback since Andrew Krewatch finished with 313 against Gannon back in 2008. That was also the last time an IUP quarterback threw for four touchdowns in a single game. The completions, yardage and touchdown marks were all career-highs for Box. Box’s favorite target was Terrill Barnes, who finished with eight receptions for 151 yards and a touchdown. He entered IUP’s single season top 10 in both categories during the game with 57 catches for 928 yards, needing the exact totals to break in. The rushing game was also strong, with Erik Finklea posting his first career 100-yard rushing day with 174 on just 12 carries, including an 81-yard touchdown. His career day could have been even better, but a 79-yard touchdown run was called back in the first half on a holding penalty. He also caught three passes for 50 yards. De’Antwan Williams (Woodbridge, VA/Woodbridge) rushed for three touchdowns, extending his season output to 15. He also ran for 73 yards on 19 carries and caught three passes for another 40 yards. Gan

Saturday, Nov. 16 • SUSAF @ Seth Grove • Shippensburg, Pa. Attendance: 5,100 SHIPPENSBURG, PA – In what would end up being a record-breaking performance for 15 NCAA PLAYOFF BERTHS | 6 NATIONAL SEMIFINAL APPEARANCES | NATIONAL TITLE GAME IN 1990 & 1993
De’Antwan Williams and Terrill Barnes, IUP wrapped up the 2013 regular season with a 4221 road victory over Shippensburg Saturday afternoon. Rushing for 315 yards on 39 attempts, Williams broke the school record for rushing yards in a single game, vaulting previous record holder Chris Morgan, who rushed for 286 yards against East Stroudsburg in 2006. Williams also added three touchdowns in the victory. Grabbing six passes for 83 yards and one touchdown, Barnes passed the 1,000-yard mark in receiving for the season. He becomes the first IUP player since Carmelo Ocasio in 2002 to post 1,000 receiving yards in a single season. The Crimson Hawks racked up 562 yards in total offense, including 356 yards on the ground. It’s the most rushing yards in a single game all year for IUP and the second highest yardage total. IUP held a 34:00-26:00 advantage in time of possession and gave up just 51 rushing yards to Shippensburg. The Crimson Hawks had five quarterback sacks on the day accounting for a loss of 60 yards. Carl Fleming led the defensive effort with a team-high nine tackles, including 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble. Lane, Terrell Holloway and James Price each had sacks. Akeem Smith recovered a fumble late in the game and rumbled 77 yards. He was one of three Crimson Hawks defenders with a fumble recovery on the day.

PORTLAND , ORE
For the second straight week, IUP found itself on the road facing inclement weather conditions, and the Indians again overcame both obstacles in a 17-0 win over Portland State to advance to the national semifinals for the first time. The IUP running game was the key to the victory. The Indians controlled the ball for almost 19 minutes after intermission and gained 122 of their game total of 186 rushing yards.

The IUP defense was outstanding, holding Portland State quarterback Darren Del’Andrae, one of the top passers in the nation, to just 20 completions in 40 attempts for 189 yards. Del’Andrae was sacked three times and picked off another three times, including two by Andy Leopold. The Vikings also lost four fumbles, giving them seven turnovers for the day.

Mississippi College built a 10-0 lead in the first quarter. The teams traded touchdowns in the second quarter, with IUP scoring on a run by Ken Rock.

Aliucci was sacked in the end zone, and the Choctaws tacked on a touchdown for a 26-7 lead 3:43 into the final period. An eight-yard hookup from Aliucci to Paul Kovell pulled IUP to within 12, but the Indians did not threaten again.

INDIANA , PA
After an easy win over Winston-Salem State in the opening round, IUP found itself in a defensive struggle the following week against PSAC West rival Edinboro at Miller Stadium.

CLINTON , MISS
One year after losing in the semifinals at Mississippi College, IUP turned the tables on the host Choctaws, winning 27-8 to advance to the Division II title contest for the first time.

IUP took control of the contest at the outset of the second half. Fred McAfee fumbled the opening kickoff, and Rob Grims kicked a 22yard field goal to give IUP the lead at 10-8.

John Sandstrom nailed a 30-yard field goal with 9:06 remaining to pull IUP to within 12-10. The Indians forced a pair of turnovers in Golden Knight territory on its next two defensive series, but a missed field goal and an interception denied IUP an opportunity to pull out the victory.

IUP pulled within 20-13 when Michael Mann went in from 25 yards out in the fourth quarter. Mann finished with one of the top rushing performances in IUP playoff history with 190 yards.

ABOUT IUP OFFERING AN EDUCATION USUALLY found at private universities, IUP has a small-college ambiance with a larger university feel. 17 PSAC CHAMPIONSHIPS | 6 PSAC “STATE GAME” APPEARANCES | 522 ALL-TIME VICTORIES
The university, which was founded in 1875, has grown into an internationally-known university, drawing its nearly15,379 enrollment from nearly every state and more than 70 countries. IUP has been recognized in the Princeton Review’s Best 373 Colleges and Universities in its 2011 edition; Kaplan’s Unofficial Insider’s Guide to the 320 Most Interesting Colleges; Dr. Donald Archer’s Cool Colleges for the Hyper-Intelligent, Self-Directed, Late Blooming and Just Plain Different; and Careers and Colleges Magazine’s annual “Great Schools at Great Prices” feature. With four locations in the foothills of the Allegheny Mountains (Indiana, Northpointe, Punxsutawney and Monroeville), which are all easily accessible to Pittsburgh and the Middle Atlantic Region, IUP is the largest of the 14 universities in the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education and the only one which is authorized to confer doctoral degrees. There are more than 140 undergraduate major fields of study in 45 academic departments. Education is always in the hands of eminently qualified professors, never graduate students. Students work alongside experienced faculty members at all levels of the curriculum, and most classes are small with a ratio approximately 16 to 1. Mentoring and tutoring services are available in many fields. Every major includes a strong liberal studies component, and eligible students in all fields may enroll in IUP’s Robert E. Cook Honors College, an innovative residential-based program for high-achieving students. Whatever the major, there are many opportunities for internships, student exchange programs and study abroad programs. In addition to being one of the most affordable schools in the nation, more than four out of five IUP students receive some form of financial aid through scholarships, grants and work-study programs.

Since 1875, when IUP served only 225 students in a single building. It has experienced continuous growth, becoming Pennsylvania’s fifth largest university. The current enrollment is nearly 15,400, with students from nearly every state and more than 70 countries. In 1875, the main campus consisted of 12 acres and one building, John Sutton Hall. Since then, with constant growth, the university now consists of 374 acres and 63 major buildings. In addition to the main campus, IUP operates residential, educational facilities at the Punxsutawney Regional Campus in Jefferson County. The campus totals approximately eight acres consisting of three sites – a living-learning center at the West End Campus, including a new apartment-style residence hall for approximately 200 students; two buildings at the Academy of Culinary Arts; and the Fairman Centre in downtown Punxsutawney, which opened in 2009. The IUP Northpointe Regional Campus in Armstrong County provides facilities for specialized electro-optics training along with various other undergraduate and graduate-level courses, including nursing and education. Northpointe is a commuter-only campus. IUP also operates a graduate and professional center in Allegheny County, IUP at Monroeville. The Student Cooperative Association owns and operates the Hadley Union Building complex, which is located adjacent to the main campus. The facility contains a large fitness center, several handball and racquetball courts, a food court and catering area, multiple computer lounges, meeting rooms and the IUP Co-op. The Student Cooperative Association also owns and maintains a 280-acre outdoor recreational park that consists of nature trails, a meeting lodge, a ski hut, softball fields and an exercise station trail.

RESIDENTIAL REVIVAL
Beginning in May 2006, IUP embarked on a comprehensive revitalization of its housing that will provide space for 3,900 students when the final phase of the project is completed in fall 2010. The $270-million project, the largest of its kind in the nation, has made IUP a school of choice for an expanding number of students. Within these living and learning communities, IUP offers a wide array of specialty floors so that students who share academic interests may live near each other. For those who desire extra quiet, study-intensive floors with stricter noise regulations are available. With information from students themselves on what amenities were most important to them, the Foundation for IUP and the university mapped out an aggressive course of action that has led to replacement of nearly all of the university’s residence halls. There are four different suite configurations with the opportunity to share a suite with one person or three. Students have more control over their privacy since some suites offer single sleeping quarters, and they share a bathroom with only one person. Each floor in the new suites has laundry facilities, a kitchenette and lounge space as well as ample meeting space. Many offices that perform student services are conveniently located in the ground floor of these new buildings. A boulevard-style landscaped street is planned to link downtown Indiana to campus and to the Kovalchick Convention and Athletic Complex.
