“Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the<br />
basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity.” –President John F. Kennedy<br />
What President Kennedy said so many years ago still rings true today. A persuasive body<br />
of scientific evidence accumulated over the past several decades indicates that regular,<br />
moderate-intensity physical activity confers substantial health benefits—physical,<br />
mental, emotional and social.<br />
• For example, one significant issue on college campuses is the increase in anxiety, stress<br />
and depression. The Harvard Medical School recently released an analysis of research that<br />
concludes that regular exercise can be as effective as medication in treating depression.<br />
• Additionally, research has begun to illustrate the impact of physical activity and campus<br />
recreational sports on academic performance. A recent study from the University of<br />
Minnesota demonstrated that for freshmen, the use of campus recreation facilities<br />
(controlling for academic, financial and social fit factors) had a positive association with<br />
academic success.<br />
Through <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> (RS) programs, students, faculty and staff find an emphasis<br />
on healthy living and the enjoyment of sport and fitness participation. They have fun, meet friends, learn new skills, and reduce the<br />
stress of demanding academic expectations. Over 33,000 students report use of our facilities, and 60 percent participate on a weekly<br />
basis while 1,800 faculty and staff hold memberships.<br />
We provide all of these benefits to our participants by offering a variety of facilities along with inclusive programming that is driven by<br />
the expressed needs of the users. The success of these programs and services drew 1.7 million facility uses this past year. RS facilities<br />
are often at, or near capacity, as we strive to meet the burgeoning needs of a wellness-conscious campus community. The section of<br />
this report entitled “Imagining the Possibilities” will tell you more about the efforts the Student <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> Association took<br />
to work in partnership with other major student organizations as advocates for the Facility Master Plan.<br />
This report also provides highlights about the extensiveness of participation along with personal stories from volunteers, employees,<br />
leaders and members of RS. Their stories illustrate the relevance of President Kennedy’s statement and serve as further motivation for<br />
our efforts to serve all students, faculty and staff.<br />

Promoting Leadership<br />
Meet Stacy Dixon. She is a student at Indiana University’s School of<br />
Medicine and is working to obtain both her medical doctorate and<br />
a doctorate of philosophy in Pharmacology. Her impressive resumé<br />
lists her research studies, the various publications to which she’s<br />
Stacy Dixon with Eric & Marilyn Behrman<br />
contributed, along with numerous prestigious fellowships she’s been<br />
awarded. Amongst those impressive standings is one line that simply<br />
states, “Jill Behrman Emerging Leader Scholarship.”<br />
“I still to this day keep it as one of the<br />
awards on my resume because it has<br />
meant a lot to me,” says Dixon. Dixon<br />
was the 2004 recipient of the Jill<br />
Behrman Emerging Leader Scholarship.<br />
She says that the prestige of the<br />
award helped her get into her PhD<br />
program and the monetary value has<br />
helped support her during medical<br />
school.<br />
But it’s more than just the title and<br />
financial significance that makes this<br />
award special to Dixon. “For those<br />
that know [Jill’s] story, I think they<br />
value the scholarship,” says Dixon.<br />
“Since winning the scholarship, I’ve<br />
been able to make it down almost<br />
every single year to participate in the<br />
Jill Behrman 5K.”<br />
A special event like the Jill Behrman<br />
5K is nothing new for Dixon, who<br />
played an integral part of planning a<br />
campus-wide special event sponsored<br />
by RS for 30 years:” Spirit of Sport”.<br />
“I remember my first year of Spirit<br />
of Sport,” says Dixon. “I didn’t know<br />
hardly anybody and it was a great<br />
way to meet new people. I was very<br />
shy then and I think [Spirit of Sport]<br />
helped to bring out my personality. I<br />
had a lot of fun.” Dixon didn’t stay shy<br />
for long.<br />
Her junior year, she served as a Vice<br />
President for the event and was<br />
elected President of Spirit of Sport<br />
her senior year. Dixon says she was<br />
inspired to be a part of the event<br />
because of the people involved in the<br />
event. “I really enjoyed the people<br />
I worked with. I had some great<br />
mentors through the RS staff and I<br />
enjoyed getting involved with the<br />
student body,” says Dixon.<br />
Through volunteer leadership<br />
experiences, Dixon gained benefits<br />
that reached beyond the realm of<br />
<strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong>. “The networking,<br />
delegating tasks and learning how to<br />
motivate people—the whole leadership<br />
position aspect has really helped<br />
me; not only in medical school, but<br />
also in my PhD program,” says Dixon.<br />
“[Spirit of Sport] was my first real<br />
shot at managing that number of<br />
people and bringing them to work<br />
together.”<br />
Dixon also served on the Student<br />
<strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> Association Board<br />
of Directors and worked as a lifeguard<br />
and swim instructor. And, when she<br />
wasn’t working at RS or serving in<br />
her leadership roles, Dixon could be<br />
found working out in one of the RS<br />
pools.<br />
Dixon says the flexible hours were<br />
one of the things she liked best about<br />
working out at <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong>.<br />
“I miss that my gym now isn’t open<br />
until 11:30 at night!” says Dixon. “I<br />
also miss the amount of equipment<br />
available, the friendliness of the<br />
staff, and the extra activities—from<br />
fitness classes to intramurals—all<br />
of that I miss. It was amazing and is<br />
hard to come by anywhere else.”<br />
From a shy sophomore undergraduate,<br />
to a medical school and doctoral<br />
candidate, Dixon truly appreciates the<br />
experiences at <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong><br />
that helped her development. “I<br />
really do think that RS has shaped<br />
my life. The people who mentored<br />
me, the people I worked with and the<br />
opportunities that were given to me<br />
through RS have really allowed me to<br />
grow as a person.”<br />

Enhancing Workplace Wellness<br />
“Getting regular exercise…improves not only one’s workplace attitude<br />
but their general attitude as well. At that point, it becomes an improved<br />
quality of life. Everyone, I think, desires the best quality of life they can<br />
achieve,” says Chris Kohler, Indiana University’s (<strong>IU</strong>) Laboratory Safety<br />
Manager and Chemical Hygiene Officer.<br />
4 <strong>Annual</strong> Report 07.08<br />
Carolyn Wiethoff & Chris Kohler<br />
Carolyn Wiethoff, a professor in Management and Entrepreneurship and<br />
Director of Executive Education for Kelley Executive Partners at <strong>IU</strong>’s Kelley<br />
School of Business agrees. “Our lives [as faculty and staff members] are<br />
full of constant challenge and change,” says Wiethoff. “The only way to<br />
keep perspective, keep thinking clearly, and keep up your energy to act<br />
on those challenges is to keep yourself<br />
healthy. Otherwise, working on a college<br />
campus can be overwhelming.”<br />
Wiethoff has been a member of <strong>Campus</strong><br />
<strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> (RS) since joining<br />
the faculty in 2001. Wiethoff says she<br />
became a member to reduce stress and<br />
stay healthy. She also enjoys the opportunities<br />
RS provides to learn new ways<br />
to exercise and develop skills in its Mind<br />
Body programs. The variety of programs<br />
that RS provides keeps Wiethoff on her<br />
toes. “In any given week I can work<br />
with my personal trainer on land or in<br />
the water, do a variety of cardio and<br />
weight training activities, take a class,<br />
work [out] alone or with a friend, and<br />
finish it all with great yoga stretching,”<br />
says Wiethoff. “There’s no boredom, so<br />
there’s no excuse!”<br />
When it comes to workout routines at<br />
RS, the words “boredom” and “excuse”<br />
aren’t part of Kohler’s vocabulary, either.<br />
Kohler joined RS in 2002, shortly after<br />
being diagnosed with Type II Diabetes<br />
and learned firsthand how he could<br />
improve his quality of life with exercise.<br />
Kohler realized that daily exercise,<br />
along with a balanced diet played an<br />
important part in managing his diabetes.<br />
His routine began at the Student<br />
<strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> Center (SRSC) indoor<br />
track where he jogged two laps a day.<br />
Every day, Kohler came back for another<br />
jog, gradually increasing his distances<br />
until he reached a daily two–mile run.<br />
Kohler decided he needed to mix it up a<br />
little to keep it fun, so he signed up for<br />
his first 5K. “That was my first outdoor<br />
run. I came in second!” says Kohler. “I<br />
even got a silly plastic trophy that I<br />
dearly love.”<br />
After the race, Kohler spent the next<br />
nine months back on the SRSC track,<br />
but the thought of that 5K race was<br />
always in the back of his mind. “It was<br />
inspirational,” says Kohler. “I started<br />
training and did the YMCA 10K, the Jill<br />
Behrman 5K Run, and others around<br />
town…One of my friends talked me<br />
into [running] the Indianapolis Mini<br />
Marathon...I followed a training program<br />
and it was a blast! I didn’t do too<br />
badly, either.” Kohler went on to run the<br />
Chicago Marathon, and has competed<br />
in 13 long–distance relays across the<br />
United States. And, although he admits<br />
that a race like the Chicago Marathon<br />
was a long, slow haul, Kohler’s passion<br />
for running continues.<br />
“I guess I’m hooked,” says Kohler.<br />
“In 2005, I ran almost 1,000 miles. I<br />
stopped keeping track after that.”<br />
Kohler isn’t the only one who’s hooked<br />
on the programs and services found at<br />
RS. Wiethoff says she’s gained many<br />
benefits from participating. “RS is what<br />
you make it,” says Wiethoff. “Anything<br />
you’re interested in trying that will make<br />
you mentally and physically healthier,<br />
they can provide.”<br />
Wiethoff and Kohler both agree that the<br />
good feeling they get after a workout<br />
is one of the many reasons they keep<br />
coming back to RS. “I love feeling good<br />
when I wake up in the morning,” says<br />
Wiethoff. “I like that I can do almost any<br />
activity offered to me–even if it is new<br />
or novel because I am basically in good<br />
shape. I also like having the energy to<br />
face every day with a smile.<br />
Smiles and good feelings aside, the biggest<br />
reason that keeps Kohler coming<br />
back to RS is to keep his Type II Diabetes<br />
under control. “It’s all been quite a trip.<br />
Not to mention the diabetes has been<br />
under control from day one,” says Kohler.<br />
He says staying alive is what inspires<br />
him to lead an active, healthy lifestyle.<br />
“<strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> saved my life!” says<br />
Kohler. “At the very least, it improved it<br />
immensely!”<br />
In 2007, the average annual health benefit<br />
cost per employee for a typical employer<br />
is predicted to exceed $8,700 – about<br />
6% higher than 2006. A growing body of<br />
literature supports the long–term return<br />
of $3–$8 for every $1 invested for a<br />
comprehensive and well–designed health<br />
promotion program.<br />

Systems<br />
A collaborative workplace wellness study in<br />
2008 by Indiana University (<strong>IU</strong>) School of<br />
Health, Physical Education and Recreation<br />
(HPER) Applied Health Science faculty member<br />
Susan Middlestadt, PhD and Chris Arvin, MS,<br />
Director of Fitness and Wellness for Indiana<br />
University <strong>Campus</strong> <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> points<br />
to an apparent need for work-site wellness<br />
programs.<br />
The study involved 279 <strong>IU</strong> Residential Programs<br />
and Services (RPS) staff members who<br />
voluntarily completed an assessment of basic<br />
health indicators. While the study showed that<br />
many RPS staff members practice key health–<br />
promoting behaviors, they also exceed health<br />
risk norms for a number of chronic diseases that<br />
affect their health, productivity and quality of<br />
life.<br />
The survey data also indicates a strong interest<br />
in participating in a work-site wellness program.<br />
RS continues to work on such a proposal for the<br />
<strong>IU</strong> Bloomington campus through the Wellness<br />
Task Force of the <strong>Campus</strong> <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong><br />
Advisory Board.<br />

Developing Students Beyond the Classroom<br />
When Kelli Archer discovered that she had a chance to serve as a volunteer<br />
co–host for the <strong>Campus</strong> <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> (RS) weekly podcast series, The Rec<br />
<strong>Sports</strong> Report, she didn’t bat an eye. “The opportunity pretty much sold itself,”<br />
says Archer, a busy fifth–year senior majoring in exercise science and dietetics<br />
and obtaining minors in psychology and fitness instruction. “It certainly did<br />
6 <strong>Annual</strong> Report 07.08<br />
Kelli Archer & Telesha Smith<br />
not take much motivation for me to volunteer. [It] really boiled down to being<br />
a great new experience to try; I was going to get to work with some really fun<br />
and wonderful people and I was going to get to do one of the things I love most<br />
in life–promote healthy living!”<br />
Fifth–year senior Telesha Smith enjoyed promoting<br />
health and wellness so much that she sought<br />
out the RS Podcast Team and interviewed for<br />
a position to serve as Archer’s co–host for the<br />
weekly podcast episodes of The Rec <strong>Sports</strong> Report.<br />
“I strive to live a healthy lifestyle and I enjoy<br />
promoting others to do the same,” says Smith,<br />
who is majoring in communication and culture<br />
and pursuing a minor in telecommunications.<br />
Smith first began participating in <strong>Recreational</strong><br />
<strong>Sports</strong> because of her love for Group Exercise and<br />
her goal to always live a healthy lifestyle. Like<br />
Smith, Archer first discovered RS when she tried<br />
some Group Exercise sessions and started using<br />
the Strength and Conditioning room at the School<br />
of Health, Physical Education and Recreation<br />
(HPER) building. Both women agree that there is<br />
no other place on campus like RS.<br />
“My favorite part about participating in RS,<br />
hands–down, is exercising in the HPER. The<br />
HPER holds a very special place in my heart,” says<br />
Archer. She says that her workouts in the HPER<br />
Strength and Conditioning room have helped her<br />
to put a lot of stress, worries, and sweat behind<br />
her. Archer describes the gym as a place that has<br />
a family–like feel. “It is one of the many little<br />
communities at <strong>IU</strong>, making this big University<br />
seem much smaller. I cannot express how thankful<br />
I am that I discovered this true gem,” says<br />
Archer.<br />
In 2006, Archer began working for <strong>Recreational</strong><br />
<strong>Sports</strong> as a Strength and Conditioning Consultant,<br />
and in 2008, Smith joined her, working as a<br />
Consultant and a Group Exercise Leader.<br />
“I am still sporting that navy blue polo today,”<br />
Archer says of the shirt RS employees wear.<br />
Archer says that her involvement as both a podcast<br />
volunteer and an employee have been the<br />
greatest things she has ever done at <strong>IU</strong>, and has<br />
learned things that she couldn’t have experienced<br />
in a classroom setting.<br />
“One of the most important things I have learned<br />
is how to connect with others who may at first<br />
seem very different than you. I have met some<br />
incredible people,” Archer says. “I have gained<br />
experience in the health field which I hope to<br />
make my career in someday. And, I have had<br />
continual motivation and inspiration to continue<br />
healthy living myself.”<br />
Smith agrees that people are an important factor<br />
in the <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> equation. “In my<br />
opinion, the greatest benefit I’ve gained from my<br />
experience with RS is the relationships I’ve gained<br />
with the others working at RS and [volunteering]<br />
for the podcasts,” says Smith. “The professional<br />
staff members have especially been helpful<br />
in helping to obtain my goals and expand my<br />
knowledge.”<br />
Smith says even the simplest skills developed<br />
during the filming of the RS podcasts are things<br />
that she will be able to apply in her future<br />
endeavors. “I always learn more from practical<br />
work than textbook work; even if I’m not thinking<br />
about it…This is sure to help me in my future<br />
career because with my positive interaction with<br />
people and my willingness to take critical advice, I<br />
can only improve myself,” says Smith who aspires<br />
to go to Hollywood after graduation to pursue a<br />
career in telecommunications.<br />
Although gaining experience in broadcasting was<br />
never part of Archer’s plan, she discovered that<br />
her role as a co–host for the weekly podcasts<br />
allows her to share the knowledge she has gained<br />
and deliver health and wellness tips that inspire<br />
others to develop more active lifestyles. Archer<br />
says the podcast project has taught her that<br />
organization, energy and enthusiasm are vital<br />
ingredients in any recipe for success. “I really love<br />
getting to meet and talk to the participants in the<br />
‘man-on-the-street’ segments [when we film the<br />
podcasts],” says Archer. “I have heard some really<br />
touching and inspiring things.”<br />
If Archer could describe RS with one sentence,<br />
she says it would simply be, “the best place on<br />
campus.”<br />
“An active, healthy lifestyle makes me think more<br />
clearly, relieves stress, and simply makes me<br />
happy,” says Archer. “I can’t imagine my life any<br />
other way.”<br />
Editor’s Note: The weekly RS podcast won a first–place Creative<br />
Excellence Award from the National Intramural–<strong>Recreational</strong><br />
<strong>Sports</strong> Association in 2008; it is <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong>’ sixth<br />
consecutive year of receiving an award for its marketing efforts.<br />
To–date the podcast has over 9,000 subscribers. You can view<br />
the podcasts by visiting podcast.iu.edu.<br />
Learning Beyond the Classroom<br />
<strong>Campus</strong> <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> has created<br />

Contributing to Academic & Career Development<br />
During his freshman year, Munda attended a career fair and<br />
<strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> caught his eye again. “Their marketing<br />
was everywhere,” says Munda. “It was such an eye-catching<br />
thing so I went for it to see what it was about.” Munda was<br />
hired right after the career fair as an Intramural <strong>Sports</strong> official<br />
and never looked back.<br />
“I love the environment and they offer a lot of flexibility,”<br />
says Munda. “You can work for them and play [Intramural<br />
<strong>Sports</strong>] with them at the same time.” Munda was recently<br />
appointed to the position of Head Official for flag football<br />
and basketball. He believes that both his career as an official<br />
and now as a Head Official have allowed him to develop skills<br />
that he will use for a lifetime.<br />
Oraine Munda<br />
Sophomore Oraine Munda can sum up Indiana University <strong>Campus</strong><br />
<strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> (RS) with one word, “exhilarating.”<br />
Munda first got involved with RS when he was a member of the<br />
Groups Program in 2006. “You come home from class and you’re<br />
8 <strong>Annual</strong> Report 07.08<br />
just now getting used to this college-life thing and you need to<br />
blow off some time—you don’t want to go to sleep and you don’t<br />
want to just go sit somewhere, so you go to RS,” says Munda. “It<br />
was just like going to the playground—it was a place you could go<br />
to blow off steam, have fun and unwind a little.”<br />
“I’ve learned many things—a lot of skills that I can use later<br />
in life…communication skills, leadership skills and other<br />
good characteristics,” says Munda. “You get a lot of experience,<br />
and I’m still learning things.”<br />
Munda, who is double-majoring in recreational sport management<br />
and tourism management and is working to obtain<br />
a minor in sport marketing management says that football<br />
and basketball are his favorite sports, which makes going to<br />
work a lot of fun. “I like the responsibility a lot and [being<br />
a Head Official] allows me to pay attention to my officials<br />
out there and I get to watch the games,” says Munda. “I love<br />
going to work.”<br />
Part of the reason he likes going to work so much is the team<br />
atmosphere that <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> promotes. “The bosses<br />
are great,” says Munda. “They’re more laid back and they talk<br />
to us as individuals. They aren’t always giving us directions…when<br />
people talk to you a certain way, you do stuff<br />
better. We all look out for one another…we operate as one.”<br />
Besides feeling a part of the RS team, Munda says he loves<br />
working at RS because it fits in with his future career plans.<br />
He says that there are things that he’s learned at RS that<br />
play into his academic studies. “[Working at RS] is definitely<br />
different and better than sitting in a classroom,” says Munda.<br />
“That’s it right there. It’s doing what they’re talking about [in<br />
class]. You get to do those things here.”<br />
In a survey conducted by <strong>Recreational</strong><br />
<strong>Sports</strong>, 64% of respondents agreed or<br />
strongly agreed that participation in recreational<br />
activities had provided them<br />
with skills or abilities they will use after<br />
college.<br />
RS is committed to the personal and<br />
professional development of students:<br />
• RS employs more than 800 part-time student<br />
workers representing 138 different majors across<br />
the <strong>IU</strong>–Bloomington campus.<br />
• Minority/international students represent nearly<br />
18% of the RS student employee workforce.<br />
• 40% of the RS portion of the student activity fee<br />
is returned to students through employment.<br />
• RS also provides volunteer opportunities for over<br />
600 students each year, realizing a savings of<br />
nearly $180,700 through volunteer involvement.<br />
• RS supports 13 graduate assistantships to<br />
develop future leaders in the field.<br />

2007-08 Operating Budget<br />
Key changes within the annual operating budget:<br />
• Increase in State appropriation due to a budget transfer from the School of HPER when RS<br />
assumed responsibility for facility management at the HPER building.<br />
• Increase in student activity fee allocation to meet expenses associated with Federal and State<br />
minimum wage increases and help to support the equipment replacement plan.<br />
• Increase in self-generated revenue resulting from increased participation in associated programs<br />
and membership sales was used to meet Federal and State minimum wage increases,<br />
to meet equity adjustments associated with <strong>IU</strong>’s Compensation System Initiative project and<br />
University guidelines for staff compensation, and help with facility maintenance and repairs.<br />
The following un-met needs represent significant concerns for daily operations and<br />
sustainability:<br />
• There is a shortfall in funding for the equipment replacement plan of $1,760,490.<br />
• The short-term, urgent needs for facility repairs/renovation totals $10 million.<br />

Facility Management<br />
In August, <strong>Campus</strong> <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> assumed<br />
responsibility for facility management of the School<br />
of Health, Physical Education and Recreation<br />
(HPER) building. This responsibility had resided<br />
in the Dean’s Office but was transitioned to RS in<br />
recognition of its experience and ability to improve<br />
efficiency and stewardship within operations.<br />
Facility Support staff led a turf improvement project<br />
for the Evan Williams Club Sport Field.<br />
Fitness/Wellness<br />
Fitness/Wellness successfully launched CycleFit as<br />
a fee-based program, guaranteeing a spot for registered<br />
participants in a specific session each week.<br />
The Step into Fitness Pedometer Program for Faculty/Staff<br />
attracted nearly 1,200 new participants<br />
for a total of 1,800 Step into Fitness enthusiasts.<br />
There were 66,000 uses in Group Exercise sessions.<br />
Participation in instructional programming increased<br />
by 34%. Participation in Personal Training<br />
increased by 2% over the previous high mark. RS<br />
Strength and Conditioning facilities enjoy strong<br />
use with participants making nearly 893,000 uses 1<br />
per year.<br />
Information Technology<br />
Information Technology (IT) staff implemented a<br />
popular Content Management System (CMS) to facilitate<br />
content updates and to more easily change<br />
the look and feel of the both the RS public website<br />
and internal on-line employee handbook—the RS<br />
Resource Guide.<br />
As part of a multi-phase, multi-year project, IT<br />
staff installed and implemented a Foot Traffic<br />
monitoring system providing a real-time: occupancy<br />
tracking system of selected facility spaces.<br />
Intramural <strong>Sports</strong><br />
The Intramural <strong>Sports</strong> Program participated in the<br />
Big Ten Champs/Nike flag football sponsorship and<br />
the National Intramural-<strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> Association<br />
(NIRSA) PowerADE/Champion program for<br />
basketball. The partnerships provided participants<br />
free PowerADE and Champion apparel. Champs<br />
sent one lucky flag football team to the Champs<br />
<strong>Sports</strong> Bowl.<br />
There were over 21,500 registrations in 5,450 intramural<br />
sports contests in 24 different sports.<br />
Marketing and Sponsorship<br />
<strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> launched a weekly podcast<br />
series, Rec <strong>Sports</strong> Report in October, 2007. Initial<br />
tracking of download statistics and RSS Feed<br />
subscription indicates strong interest in this new<br />
medium. It is also featured on <strong>IU</strong>’s Podcast Portal<br />
and is the first weekly podcast offered by an <strong>IU</strong>-<br />
Bloomington unit.<br />
General<br />
Fast Facts<br />
• Based on a 2007 student survey conducted by a<br />
national assessment company:<br />
• 84% of respondents felt the student fee for RS<br />
was justified based on the number of programs/<br />
services offered.<br />
• 95% of survey respondents would recommend<br />
RS programs, services and facilities to others.<br />
• 163 groups use RS facilities to host a variety of<br />
events and tournaments annually, including 40<br />
student organizations, 34 academic and nonacademic<br />
units, 28 public organizations, 27 club<br />
sports, and 7 <strong>IU</strong> Varsity Athletics camps.<br />
• 144 students represent leaders, volunteers or<br />
employees from <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> enrolled in<br />
the R100 Leadership Series course.<br />
Facility Master Plan<br />
<strong>Campus</strong> <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> developed a preliminary<br />
facility master plan reflecting broad<br />
stakeholder input from students, faculty and staff<br />
in partnership with Brailsford and Dunlavey,<br />
recognized leaders in facility master planning for<br />
collegiate recreational sports facilities. The plan<br />
provides recommendations for the renovation and<br />
expansion of the Student <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> Center,<br />
outdoor activity spaces, and the Wildermuth<br />
Intramural Center.<br />
The Student <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> Association<br />
(SRSA) and Indiana University Student Association<br />
(<strong>IU</strong>SA) provided leadership in shaping a multifaceted<br />
campaign to educate the campus about<br />
the facility master plan. They facilitated meetings<br />
with all major campus student organizations, seeking<br />
input and assessing the level of student support<br />
for the plan. As a result, 13 student organizations<br />
endorsed the plan and the principle of using<br />
student fees as a funding source.<br />
SRSA and <strong>IU</strong>SA sought additional input through a<br />
web-based fee tolerance survey sent to 10,000 students.<br />
Of the 2,233 respondents, 60% supported a<br />
student fee ranging between $60-100 per semester<br />
per student for the project. President McRobbie<br />
outlined next steps in the approval process,<br />

Representing over 800 part-time student employees<br />
The Special Projects Director of the Student <strong>Recreational</strong><br />
<strong>Sports</strong> Association (SRSA) spent a lot of time<br />
helping to move projects—including the Facility<br />
Master Plan—forward during the past year. Alex<br />
Sidebottom should know. This was his role during the<br />
2007-2008 school year.<br />
“Working towards this higher goal of trying to better<br />
the <strong>IU</strong> Bloomington campus with these much needed<br />
and important recreational facilities—this is where<br />
much of my interest/inspiration [in <strong>Recreational</strong><br />
<strong>Sports</strong>] came from,” says Sidebottom, who now serves<br />
as President of SRSA.<br />
As President of SRSA, Sidebottom continues his efforts<br />
to advance <strong>Campus</strong> <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> (RS). His<br />
involvement has afforded him opportunities that<br />
compliment and enhance what he gets from the classroom.<br />
These include honing his public speaking skills<br />
and learning how to work with diverse groups—some<br />
with conflicting viewpoints—towards consensus.<br />
including finalizing phasing details and developing<br />
a business plan to share with key campus administrators,<br />
and linking it with the new <strong>IU</strong> Bloomington<br />
<strong>Campus</strong> Master Plan process.<br />
Staff Recognition<br />

During the past three years, the Student<br />
<strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> Association<br />
(SRSA) has been hard at work with<br />
<strong>Campus</strong> <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> on a Facility<br />
Master Plan for the recreational<br />
facilities at Indiana University (see<br />
page 13 for more details).<br />
In the 2007–2008 school year, SRSA<br />
partnered with the Indiana University<br />
Student Association (<strong>IU</strong>SA) on a<br />
student-focused version of the facility<br />
master plan presentation to share with<br />
other student organizations on campus.<br />
These presentations were designed<br />
to gain support and feedback from a<br />
cross-section of students on campus.<br />
Alex Sidebottom<br />
Thirteen major student organizations<br />
have currently signed a letter of<br />
endorsement stating they support the<br />
facility master plan and use of student<br />
fee funding in principle. These endorsements<br />
confirm what the campus-wide<br />
surveys, focus groups and advisory<br />
committees have already demonstrated:<br />
this is a priority to students!<br />
SRSA and <strong>IU</strong>SA also began a marketing<br />
campaign to further educate the<br />
student body about the preliminary results<br />
of the facility master plan. Copies<br />
of the advertisements and posters from<br />
the nine-week campaign, along with<br />
graphics showing SRSA’s ideas can be<br />
found at recsports.indiana.edu/srsa.<br />
“Without a doubt, my involvement in SRSA has given<br />
me an immense amount of experience and knowledge<br />
that I could not get in the classroom, especially<br />
leading and motivating peers and gaining comfort<br />
and confidence in working effectively with higher<br />
level decision-makers. In and outside the classroom,<br />
I feel more confident and articulate in expressing my<br />
views,” says Sidebottom. Most, if not all, of my work<br />
with SRSA is going to help me in the dealings of the<br />
real world.”<br />
Leadership opportunities aside, the economics major<br />
says that he truly enjoys working out every day at the<br />
Student <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> Center or the School of<br />
Health, Physical Education and Recreation building.<br />
He especially enjoys interacting with fellow students<br />
and <strong>Recreational</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> staff alike.<br />
“[There is a] close-knit family-like feeling that everyone<br />
at RS has,” says Sidebottom. “[The family-like<br />
feel] makes perfect sense—all the activities offered<br />
give participants such a great experience.”<br />
RS Marketing received a First Place Creative Excellence<br />
Award from NIRSA in the Audiovisual Promotion<br />
category for its Rec <strong>Sports</strong> Report podcast<br />
program. RS also received a Third Place Creative<br />
Excellence Award for its annual Faculty/Staff <strong>IU</strong><br />
