On April 17-18, 2007, 57% of the students who voted passed the referendum to build a recreation center.

Construction for the 100,000 plus square-foot facility and outdoor field complex is slated to begin in the Fall of 2009 with a target open date of fall 2011.

The driving principles and key tenets that direct action of the Recreation Center Committee are to:

  • Develop premier campus recreation facilities, which provide the CSUN community with opportunities for exercise and other recreation/leisuretime activities that promote lifelong wellness and support student recruitment and retention,
  • Create facilities that incorporate eco-friendly components that bridge architecturally and philosophically with the University Student Union and are consistent with the overall University mission and Campus Physical Master Plan,
  • Create recreational programs and facilities that foster CSUN spirit, and provide an environment that is welcoming, comfortable and fun,
  • Ensure student involvement in the decision-making and governance processes.
