Lee & Helene Sapp Fieldhouse is a 3,500-seat multi-purpose arena on the campus of the University of Nebraska Omaha in Omaha, Nebraska. It has served as home to several of the school's sports teams, currently known as Omaha Mavericks; among them are men's and women's basketball, women's volleyball, and wrestling. It is also a practice facility for the Mavericks women's track and field program, although that team does not compete there. As of the 2015–16 school year, the only one of these teams that still plays there is the volleyball team, and it only serves as a part-time home. The first team to abandon Sapp Fieldhouse was the wrestling team, which was disbanded in 2011 as a prelude to the school's transition from NCAA Division II to Division I. The next team to leave was men's basketball, which moved off campus to Ralston Arena when it opened in 2012. The women's basketball team remained in the Fieldhouse through the 2014–15 season. With the opening of the on-campus Baxter Arena for the 2015–16 school year, both basketball teams will play there full-time, and the volleyball team will split its home schedule between the Fieldhouse and the new arena.

The mission of the College of Public Affairs and Community Service is to 1) foster a learning environment in which undergraduate students, graduate students, adult learners and both traditional and nontraditional students can gain a comprehensive and quality education helpful in preparing for careers in their respective fields 2) Conduct research, especially as it relates to concerns of our local and statewide constituencies 3) Offer professional services to the community, including continuing education opportunities, designed to further personal, professional, organizational, and community improvement goals. The College of Public Affairs and Community Service (CPACS) was created amidst the social and racial turbulence occurring in Omaha in the early 1970s to ensure the university was responsive to the critical social needs and concerns of our community and state. The College was given the mission not only to provide educational and training programs of the highest caliber to prepare students for careers and leadership in the public service, but also to reach out to the community to help solve public problems. This mission is reflected in our motto: “Engaging Citizens, Creating Solutions, Serving the Community.” From those days almost 40 years ago, the College has become a national leader among similar colleges. Its faculty ranks among the finest in their disciplines (see Faculty & Staff Awards). Its degree programs are nationally ranked. And faculty, staff, and students are integral to the community and the state because of their applied research, service learning and outreach activities. We take seriously our duty to address social needs and craft solutions to local and national problems.
