Student Life Center Membership
Memberships
Student Life Center memberships can be purchased by the day, month, or up to a year. A daily use pass is good for the day of purchase and is described in further detail below. Monthly membership will be good for one month from date of purchase. Yearly membership will be good for one year from date of purchase.
Students, faculty/staff with paid memberships, and spouses of students/faculty staff with paid memberships are entitled to full use of the Student Life Center facilities, including the gymnasium and Thaemert Field, and all Student Life Center-sponsored programs.
Purchase of a dependent membership, an alumni membership, daily pass or General Fitness Membership entitles the member use of the gymnasium including but not limited to the basketball court, racquetball/handball courts, weight room, cardiovascular and stretching rooms. It does not entitle the use of Thaemert field. Purchase of a Youth General Fitness membership (14-17) requires a parental waiver to be signed before weight room and cardiovascular use is permitted. No one under the age of 14 is permitted access to the Student Life Center without supervision unless permitted by rental agreement, camp, or contract.
Faculty/Staff
Faculty/staff with Student Life Center memberships will have full use of the Student Life Center facilities and can participate in intramural sports at Thaemert Field and the gymnasium with a paid membership.

Proof of enrollment of 6 credit hours or more MUST be submitted to the Rec Center Coordinator or office staff each semester to receive "faculty/staff student" status.

Memberships for Spouses & Dependents of Faculty/Staff/Students/Alumni
When adding spouse and dependent children ages 14-23 to a faculty/staff membership, family members will receive a 25 percent discount as the second or more users. If the faculty/staff member does not purchase a membership, the spouse and dependent child aged 14-23 will pay the full membership rate. One parent must be included in the plan before any dependent children will be added. This means either the ID holder or spouse must have or purchase a membership for the Student Life Center before a dependent membership can be sold for the Student Life Center. If anyone currently holds a membership they may add a dependent for a discounted rate.
