New Lap Swim Hours for the 50 meter pool begin on August 20, 2025

  • There are changes taking place this fall at the Spartan Recreation and Aquatic Center regarding lap swim times in the 50 meter pool and recreation pool.

  • These changes enable us to stay in alignment with the Student Union mission statement and standard aquatic practices at universities and colleges. 

  • New lap swim hours for the 50m pool are now posted on the website and signage at the pool.  

  • These hours apply to all customers including faculty, staff, students, and alumni.
