Philosophy
O Campus Recreation plays a vital role in our
students’ development by providing
opportunities that encourage healthy lifestyles,
sportsmanship, leadership, teamwork, and
responsibility.
O Sport Clubs provided numerous development
opportunities, and not just competitive outlets.
Removing the “student-run” aspect of a club
would only take away those development
opportunities for our students.
