Recreation and Wellness Center Memberships for Faculty and Staff

Did you know that Â鶹ÊÓƵ faculty and staff can purchase a membership to the Beverly J. Warren Student Recreation and Wellness Center (SWRC) for only $19.58 per month? Take advantage of payroll deduction and you'll spend less than $10 per pay.  

New for fall 2021, faculty/staff annual memberships include access to ALL group exercise classes, in-person and virtual (over $145 annual value). Members also receive two free guest passes each semester and discounted pricing on programs, facility rentals, and additional guest passes.   

Recreational Services' faculty/staff membership pricing is due in part to the full-time faculty/staff benefit paid by each hiring department, which equates to a $60 annual discount. With flexible payment options, including monthly auto-debit and payroll deduction, you can't find a better value. 

Need more convincing? See below how participating in the Wellness Your Way Rewards Program can allow your membership to basically pay for itself. 

As part of the Employee Wellness program, all full-time, benefits-eligible employees can earn $300 annually for completing Tier 1 and Tier 2 of the wellness rewards program, which covers the cost of a faculty/staff SRWC membership and then some! 

The goal of Tier 2 of the wellness rewards program is to earn 350 points by engaging in healthy lifestyle activities. As an active member of the SRWC, you can earn the following Tier 2 points:

  • Group Exercise â€“ 10 points per session, up to 100 points per cycle 

  • Mindfulness/Yoga â€“ 10 points per session, up to 60 points per cycle 

  • 3/3/30 Exercise Tracker â€“ Track three months of exercise to earn 50 points 

  • Wellness Your Way â€“ Training for something specific? Prefer to work out alone? This is Wellness Your Way! Earn up to 40 points in this Tier 2 category 

  • Wellable Challenges â€“ Have an activity tracking device or app? Then you might consider joining a Wellable challenge, which allows your steps and exercise to translate to Tier 2 points! Points vary. Learn more here
