RECREATION ALSO IS A PART of college living. Mental Health, physical health and social health are inter-dependent, and experiences ore provided in all of these fields. An active intramural athletic program as well as varsity games provide an outlet for physical energy. Our special events of Homecoming and Winter Carnival are occasions for additional planned recreational and social activity. The new Student Center with its game area, provision for watching television, and places for formal meetings as well as informal get-togethers has added much to the extra-curricular life at the College. With spacious gymnasium, a large swimming pool, handball courts and a dirt floor area for indoor golf, archery, baseball, and other team games, the newly - completed Physical Education and Recreation Center brings new facilities for student activities.
