MISSION STATEMENT
Eastern Michigan University’s Recreation/Intramural Sports Department strives to
provide the campus and surrounding community with quality recreational facilities and
activities which promote a healthy lifestyle through participation in exercise, individual
and team sports, educational programs and recreational events.
The Rec/IM Department works closely with students and other valuable resources
toward the common University goals of unity, student development, and overall
excellence in higher education.
ABOUT THE REC/IM
History
The Rec/IM first opened its doors in 1982. By student demand/referendum, the Rec/IM was
funded by student fees at a total cost of $17.25 million.
Originally called the Lloyds W. Olds Student Recreation Center (after former athletic
director, track coach, and intramural director, and inventor of the striped referee shirt), the
complex was renamed Olds-Robb Student Recreation and Intramural Complex. Richard
Robb, Chairman of the Board of Regents, the longest serving regent at Eastern Michigan
University, chose the Rec Center as the building he was most proud of.
The Building

MEMBERSHIP
Introduction
To be eligible to participate in the many programs sponsored by the Recreation/Intramural
Department, an individual must be a currently enrolled student or have a current Eastern Michigan
University Rec/IM membership card. Currently enrolled students are automatically assessed a fee
in their tuition for the Student Rec Center. All other patrons, including continuing students (see
Definitions), must purchase a Rec/IM membership to enjoy the same privileges.
3
Every facility user must show picture identification to enter the building (i.e., valid Eagle One
ID, Rec/IM membership card, driver’s license with membership receipt/guest pass/forgotten ID
pass) and be able to provide it if asked while in the building. At the beginning of every semester,
it is suggested that students carry course confirmations for the first two weeks and that Rec/IM
members carry membership receipts when entering the facility along with picture ID. Beginning Fall
2015, members eighteen years and older may use our biometric system. Biometrics identifies people
by a unique hand characteristic. Biometric technologies compare a person’s unique characteristics
against a previously enrolled image for the purpose of recognition. It does not record finger or palm
prints. If the biometric is not recorded the patron must use their valid membership card.
Children under 18 who do not have picture identification must show their Rec/IM membership
receipt until their permanent membership card is available for use. In addition, children under 18
must be accompanied by an EMU student or a current Rec/IM member who is over 18. Eagle One
IDs and Rec/IM membership cards are not transferable.
Unauthorized IDs will be confiscated and fees paid will not be refunded. Violators will be subject to
sanctions by the Student Conduct and Community Standards Office as stated in the Student Code
of Conduct, which may result in loss of access and privilege. Those who have IDs confiscated, or
cannot provide proper identification, are not allowed to use the facility, or purchase guest passes,
for themselves nor any other person, that same day.
Current non-sponsored members or currently enrolled EMU students may sponsor other adults for
facility memberships at the sponsor’s affiliation rate. Eligible Member Definitions
