Campus Recreation | Penn State Student Affairs

Welcome to Campus Recreation

Our people are our greatest asset. Our community is enriched by the commonalities and differences of everyone we serve. We invite you to work with us towards fostering a welcoming environment that enables all to thrive.

Campus Recreation facilities and programs serve our students, faculty, staff, and community with a diverse offering of wellbeing opportunities to enhance the student experience at University Park.

Masking Required

Penn State Campus Recreation may be forced to impose a moratorium on access to its facilities, including the IM Building, White Building, and Hepper Fitness Center (adjacent to Rec Hall), unless compliance with the University’s indoor masking requirement significantly increases in these facilities soon.

Campus Recreation, a unit of Penn State Student Affairs, will continue to monitor mask wearing in the facilities and will make a decision on closing if there is a significant disregard for mask wearing. In addition, patrons who disregard the mask requirement may be subject to other sanctions, such as removal from the building, referral to student conduct (for student patrons) or revoking of membership.
