The idea of a rec center has been going back and forth for a while now. According to a recent survey, Recreational Needs Assessment Survey, 60% of students want a rec center. According to the Union Weekly, most students who want the rec center feel that it will benefit the health of students across campus.
The majority of students, 54%, who did vote in the survey would prefer Option B, which has less of an increase in fees. Option B "advertises a fee increase of $55-$65 a semester, and will be approximately 75,000 square feet in size."
The rec center is up in the air at the moment. The Board must now take it to the senate to make action happen. There is no set date for the Board to go in front of the senate, but members feel that if this project is going to lift off, it would benefit everyone to go big.
“I think to do this right, we have to maximize everything. Make it the best we can for our money, not just update everything,” Board Chair Joseph Baclig said.
