We, the students of Kent State University, would like to see the Student Wellness and Recreation Center closed to the public. Currently, individuals whom have no direct link to the University are welcome to use the Center in exchange for monthly payment. The Center is largely funded through student tuition, making it "free" to students. However, opening the Center to the public has resulted in substantial over-peopling. Students must often wait hours to use machines and equipment, making the Center incredibly inefficient. Updating the Center's public-use policy will effectively resolve the burden imposed by overpopulation and fashion a utilitarian recreational center which students deserve. Let the Kent State University's Recreational and Wellness Center serve those who need it most.
