Facilities/Directions  UNI-DomeIn 2009, the University of Northern iowa installed Mondoturf Ecofill Star artificial turn in the UNI-Dome, replacing the previous artifical surface which had been in use since 1992. Construction began July 13, 2009, and the final touches were put in place August 15, 2009. The surface came in 32 rollable panels and is secured by a Velcro system. The mid-field and endzone logos are in-laid and do not require annual painting of the turf. The new field features a different look than the old turf, as well as a new look to the end zones. The end zones are now purple and have Panthers in gold letters. Under the turf is an all-purpose floor marked as a running track.
