REC | Rec Center still offering activities despite gym closure

Porter said general student usage of the Rec Center has not been heavily impacted by the gym’s closure. The Rec Center still offers other activities such as HIIT, salsa, pilates and yoga. As the weather gets warmer, students can also participate in slacklining on the Quad.

“With our multipurpose gym, we’ve started to be flexible and allow a lot of things to go on in there and be able to set up a lot of things in there,” said Rec Center supervisor Shelby

Skinner. “All the cardio equipment from upstairs has been brought down so you can still use all of that.”

Because of the limited space in the multipurpose gym, students have to call and reserve space ahead of time in order to be guaranteed a spot in the gym.

“We are super excited,” Porter said. “We think the floor is going to look really nice, the track’s gonna be really nice, so we’re very excited for students to have a brand new space to play with in the fall.”
