I've always wondered why they didn't match the south end zone to the north end zone and add the exterior colosseum look?
Middleton Library comes into play with that as well. Story is, the BOS and legislature had to cut a deal to also build the library at the same time, thereby forcing them to cut corners on the South Endzone expansion.

Twofold:
1.) DIdn't have the room on that side to mirror the north enclosure. Given the space constraints, they had to make the expansion double-decked instead of a single stadium slope.
2.) We needed seats fast, but we weren't yet a very wealthy athletic department, so we took a couple shortcuts with the design. Hello, ugly pillar design.
