Nutter Center: Weight Room

The last three years have been an exciting time of transformation for the Student Union.  The entire lower level

and the upper atrium have been renovated to improve the quality of student life on campus.  Through the renovation, the following goals have been achieved:

• Increased student access to quality recreation facilities by expanding high use areas and creating newexercise venues.
• Redesigned student activity and student organization spaces to create a collaborative environment that promotes open communication and a strong sense of community among students.
• Incorporated a wellness component within the Student Union by bringing Student Health Services, Counseling and Wellness Services and the WSU Pharmacy into the building.

Over the past two years we have been able to expand hours of service in the Student Union, Recreation Center and the Climbing Wall. However, due to budgetary issues, effective with Winter Quarter 2008, we will return to the hours of service which had been in place prior to this expansion.

In addition, the Nutter Center weight room will no longer be available for drop-in use, but will continue its primary function as a teaching area for the Department of Health, Physical Education and Recreation.  Patrons are encouraged to use the expanded recreation center within the Student Union.  Finally, climbing wall hours will continue to be adjusted as usage patterns are evaluated during the first year of operation.

Please note the following operating hours, beginning Monday, January 7, 2008:

The Student Union and Campus Recreation staff will continue to look for operating efficiencies and to pursue alternate funding opportunities.  Thank you for your understanding and support.
