   • President Ronald Reagan was the featured guest at the Ferrell Center’s first event, just a few months before he left office. (Here’s what preparations for the Ferrell Center opening looked like in a classic news clip from 1988).
   • Its name honors the memory of a former Baylor student. Charles Robert Ferrell tragically lost his life in a car accident in 1967 while a Baylor sophomore.
   • This is the fourth permanent home for Baylor basketball. Before the early 1920s, the Bears played their home games outside on Carroll Field (located where the Bill Daniel Student Center sits today).
   • The Ferrell Center wasn’t always planned for its current location. In 1982, it was announced that a new special events center would be built “adjacent to Russell Gymnasium, on a site bordered by Waco Creek, University Parks Drive, Bagby Street and Speight Avenue” (where the McLane SLC and Baylor Sciences Building are now).
