YEAR IN REVIEW

CAMPUS RECREATIONORGANIZATIONAL CHART FY ‘15

Campus Recreation had a very successful 2014 – 2015 academic year. For the purposes of

this report, Campus Recreation focused on participation as our main indicator of success.

Alargepartofthisyear’ssuccesscanbeattributedtotheadditionofstaffandfinancial

support. We have used these resources to better serve and support our students and this

isdemonstratedthroughthegrowthinbothparticipationandprogramsoffered.Whilewe

have seen achievement throughout all areas, the following bullets are some of our most

notable highlights from this past year.

Intramural Sports has seen a dramatic increase in participation over the past three years rising from 3,500 participants to nearly 6,000 this year. The number of Sport Clubs grew 46%, expanding from 24 clubs to 35.

The Outdoor Adventure Program set a record with 388 students participating in 37 different local, regional, and national trips.

The Free Wheelers Bicycle Share was recognized by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation with their Pinnacle Award for encouraging sustainable commuter options.

Campus Recreation employed over 270 part time student and professional staff members. Ninety percent were trained in CPR/AED & First Aid. A student safety team was created to help train all 34 student supervisors in emergency response. Safety team members tested supervisors with mock emergency situations that tested CPR/AED and First Aid skills.

In collaboration with the Wellness Center, Campus Recreation piloted an Exercise is Medicine Program. The Wellness Center identified students that would most benefit from increased exercise and provided these students with prescriptions for free personal training. The program has evolved into an internship opportunity for Exercise Physiology students which will make this program financially sustainable and allow more students to be referred in 2015-2016.
