About PE and Rec
The core purpose of the Department of Physical Education and Recreation is to educate, engage, and inspire the campus community to live active, balanced lives. Holistic well-being lies at the foundation of our work.
The aim is to promote health and well-being through our programs and facilities. From strength and conditioning spaces to courts and pools, from personal training and group exercise to physical education classes, from intramural sports and the rock wall to youth and family programming, there is something for everyone at the Rec.
