About the Department

Campus Recreation’s programs are designed to meet the athletic and recreational needs of the whole community–all students, staff, and faculty.  Programs provide opportunities for the worthwhile use of leisure time and maintenance of high-level health and wellness. Activities are held in the Simon Forum and associated outdoor facilities.

Check us out on to keep up on events!

Our activities often fall within five major program areas:

Informal “Self-Serve” Recreation: Basketball, racquetball, squash, and swimming are just a few of the activities available.

Fitness Activities: Cardio-vascular equipment (e.g. ergs, ellipticals, treadmills, recumbent bikes) and strength-training equipment are located in the Simon Forum’s Fitness & Weight Rooms. Weekly classes are also offered free to students and $20/ semester/course for faculty and staff. View the Spring 2013 Class Schedule.

Intramural Sports: Both team and individual competition take place in sports and activities such as flag football, indoor/outdoor soccer, basketball, softball, squash, tennis, billiards, etc. There are tournaments, awards and occasional travel to regional and national tournaments. Learn more about intramurals.

Club Sports: The clubs are organized and operated by students in conjunction with the Department of Campus Recreation. They include: Belly Dancing, B.O.O.C, Cheerleading, Dance Club, Dance Team, Men’s and Women’s Rugby, Step Team, Table Tennis and Ultimate Frisbee.  Read more for descriptions and contact info.

Outdoor Recreation: Outdoor Recreation provides a variety of physical activities to Drew students, faculty, staff, and community members in the hopes of teaching technical outdoor skills, developing self-confidence, and improving interpersonal relationships, all while having fun.
