Northwestern University announced Thursday they will lower the number of concerts held at the new proposed Ryan Field stadium, while still contributing financially to the city.
In a statement, Northwestern president Michael Schill said they have taken into consideration neighbors’ concerns and will drop the number of concerts held in a year from 10 to six.
“The new stadium has never been solely about Northwestern football; its role as an economic and social engine goes well beyond that,” Schill said.
