About Us

The Leisure Program was designed to provide students and the community with a variety of activities that would compliment the academic experience. Established in 1953, the Campus Center Leisure Program continues to provide quality activities ranging from arts and crafts to outdoor recreation. The programs provided are all reasonably priced (with an additional discount to students) as are the various equipment that can be rented.

Approximately 10,000 individuals participate annually in the Campus Center Leisure Program, 60% students and 40% non-students. All our classes are non-credit and geared strictly to zero-stress learning and fun.

The intention of the Leisure Program is to provide quality programming for everyone, so feel free to visit and explore the class options that we provide for you.
