Campus Recreation’s mission is to create an inclusive environment that inspires movement and community. In addition to offering an award-winning fitness facility, we strive to be a place where members can connect with one another in a safe and positive environment.

Campus Recreation includes multiple fitness spaces: Campus Recreation Center, the Fitness Center at CARE/Crawley, the Siddall Fitness Center, and Movement on Main. Our facilities offer many ways for members to get active – from cardio and weight equipment to group fitness, swimming pools, a climbing wall, and more. We look for teammates who uphold the same values as we do: Excellence, Ownership, Solutions Focused, Fun, and Teamwork.   

Connect. Energize. Thrive. Explore Campus Recreation.
