The Bob Carpenter Club (BCC) will be closed and unavailable for use by Delaware Diamonds Society donors on football game days beginning this season to accommodate a new command post for the UD Police Department, Newark Police and others whose priority is the safety and security of all those attending athletics events.

Delaware Diamond Society donors will continue to have access to an exclusive Delaware Diamonds entrance into Delaware Stadium located at the Spartin Family Gate. 

The BCC will remain open for Delaware Diamonds Society donors on UD basketball home game days.

Reminder: Athletic representatives are prohibited from providing a student-athlete or a prospective student-athlete with any extra benefits. Legal guardians or relatives of student-athletes or prospective student-athletes are allowed access to the Bob Carpenter Club as Delaware Diamonds Society donors only. Legal guardians or relatives of student-athletes or prospective student-athletes are prohibited access to the Bob Carpenter Club as a guest of a Delaware Diamonds Society donor. The University of Delaware is committed to the principle of institutional control and will maintain all aspects of its intercollegiate athletics program in full accordance with all NCAA, CAA Conference and University rules.

The Diamonds Walkway recognizes Delaware Diamonds Society donors who have generously contributed to UD for five consecutive years at any Society level. Donors are recognized for their leadership support with a personalized brick on campus.

Located between Main Street and Old College on the Newark campus, the Diamonds Walkway symbolizes tradition and loyalty to UD. Following our naming standards, bricks are engraved with the donor's name or to commemorate a loved one.

Donors celebrating their five-year anniversary with the Delaware Diamonds Society are notified of their brick eligibility annually. Brick installation typically occurs in the fall, but due to the pandemic, timing may shift.
