LTU continued its transformation from a primarily commuter institution to offering a full campus life with the construction of more residence halls—Donley Hall [1], Reuss Hall [2], and the award-winning East Residence Hall [3][4], the latter for all first-year students. The University now has the capacity for more than 1,000 residential students.
In 2011, competitive athletics returned to campus with the University’s entry into the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. LTU now supports over 30 varsity men's and women's teams in baseball, basketball, bowling, cross country, eSports, football, golf, ice hockey, lacrosse, soccer, softball, tennis, track and field, and volleyball—along with a pep band, a marching band, and cheer and dance teams. Football returned in 2018.[5]
In 2021, the University added more teams, including e-sports, women’s hockey, cheerleading and men’s volleyball, and adding to existing programs in women’s bowling and track and field. [6]
