What athlectic facilities are included with tuition?
Hey all, I've been looking around the Marauders website and it says "Base Access to Athletics & Recreation Complex" is available at no charge to full time undergrads. Does anyone know what this includes? The only thing I'm reasonably sure about is the pool.

I think you get access to the basketball courts as well.

There is also an indoor running track included as well as the gymnasiums, but I am not sure about the squash courts

The weightlifting and climbing wall is not included

Thanks for the info. everyone. Squash courts would be awesome! Does it seem like people use the basketball courts for, well, full court basketball games pretty often or could you possibly do something different off in a corner?

From what I see while I go to the gym, if there is no official 'game' you are fine to do whatever in the corner

As said before you pretty much have access to everything except the Pulse (weight room w/ equipment etc.) and instructional classes are also extra.

There open gyms that you can ask for whatever nets to be set up as long as it's free.

Yes, you just have to have to sign out the basketballs.
