257,177 sq. ft. Student Rec Center
Approx. 1/3 mile indoor jogging trail with inclined slope
40,431 sq. ft. cardio/weight space
8 multi-purpose courts
Renovation of Student Recreation Center Locker Rooms
Outdoor Adventure Center
High low ropes course across from UREC SRC
Fitness Assessment Center
Leisure pool in the shape of LSU
9 new tennis courts (opened Fall 2014)
Addition of 300+ parking spaces at Student Recreation Complex (opened Fall 2014)[/quote]
That is what the $$ is being spent on. That is what was voted on. People are bitching about a drop in the bucket for something that has to do with student living
This is not a budget cut issue

He just thinks the idea is dumb.
A ropes course is also stupid.

I don't think too many are arguing that it is a budget cut issue. It's just the idea of raising money off of the students through fee bill charges for something this trivial when there are better places this money can go. I know the students voted on it, but it's still not the brightest decision. When I was a student and they had a vote to get my bar tab put on my fee bill, I would have probably voted for it. Doesn't mean it was a good decision. As I would have gotten a little older and realized what was important, I would have said, "you know what, probably should have done something smarter with that money".
