of OSU's new Recreational and Physical Activity Center(RPAC) by soccer star Jil Anderson(Thanks Jil for taking time out of your busy schedule to show us around).For those of you who attended OSU in earlier years, the new rec center is located on the site of the former Larkins Hall. Some express nostalgia to the old facility but fond memories encased in cobwebs would be promptly dusted away on entering the current facility. It is an amazing opportunity for students recreational needs to be met. All students enrolled in
over four hours of classes are automatically charged a approximately $75 fee and are considered members of the facility and allowed access to all of it's recreational options.I didn't realize how much was involved until I came home and tried to explain to hubby, Brent, exactly what we had seen on the tour. Hours later I was still remembering portions of the tour I had neglected to include in my description. It's difficult to describe over 25,000 square ft. of space accurately.
Some of the highlights of the tour:
*The company
*The moveable floor in the pool which aquatic aerobics are offered
*"Cardio Canyon"
*The natatorium ( new word learned meaning: an indoor swimming pool)
*The Lobby/Welcome Center area

SOOOO impressed with the RPAC! It almost made me want to go workout :). Good idea, cuz. Glad we did it!
T, I think your department has been upstaged! Is the athletic department too lofty to lower their standards? Will A and M, who pay taxes to this great state as well as dues in the hallowed halls of OSU's academic venues, be touring any other facilities?
