Conveniently located on the first floor of the Student Center, Tech Rec is right in the center of campus. Students can “easily come in between classes and take a break ... just have fun,” said Michael Coleman, associate program director, Student Center. “This is an inexpensive outlet for students.”

According to Coleman, the best feature is the gaming lounge, which includes Playstation and networked Xbox 360s, a great deal at $3.50 per hour.
