Schreiber will be the home of the UM gym until construction is complete on the new center. It's more spacious, a lot cooler, smells much better than last year. A nice lifting atmosphere. And having everything in one large room makes lifting weights less crowded.
People really like having everything in one place.
It makes things a little more social, people interact more in here. Tysk said having natural light from the windows allows more ventilation in the gym, making things cooler and less musty. But there's a lot of equipment here so you don't have to wait around for the classes to get done. The only negative reaction Rec Annex employees have heard about the late-June gym move came from not having basketball hoops or a climbing wall in the building. Those wanting to play basketball will have to play outside or at McGill gym or the west auxiliary gym at the Adams Center.
