The Emil and Patricia Jones Convocation Center, also known as the Jones Convocation Center or simply the JCC, is a 7,000-seat[1] multi-purpose arena in Chicago, Illinois, United States. Completed in 2007, the arena is home court for the Chicago State University Cougars men's and women's basketball teams.[2] The arena replaced the Dickens Athletic Center, which only had capacity to seat 2,500 persons.[3][4]
The convocation center is unique among Illinois university athletic projects, as Chicago State University itself did not need to raise any money for the project; the money was allocated from the State of Illinois Treasury by then-Senate President Emil Jones.[citation needed]
The venue hosted the 2012 and 2013 Great West Conference men's basketball tournaments.
