Butler University Master Plan
About this Event
We will explore how Butler University has transformed its campus over the past decade through strategic investments in modern residence halls, innovative academic facilities, and enhanced learning environments that have strengthened the student experience and supported the growth of new academic programs. Rusty Vineyard, Associate Vice President of Facility Operations & Chief Facilities Officer, will share how Butler is building on this strong foundation through the Gateway Project.
The Gateway Project marks the next chapter in Butler's long-term vision. Guided by the Boldly Butler strategic plan, Gateway will create a more connected, vibrant district where people can live, learn, work, and gather. It will expand opportunities for arts, athletics, entertainment, and education and serve as a catalyst for lasting economic and community impact across Midtown Indianapolis.
