Facility Policy and Services
- Facility services are made available to those individuals recognized as members of the Penn State Harrisburg community. Upon entering the CUB, all users of the facility must swipe-in at the front desk using a current and valid Penn State ID or Non-Affiliate Pass.
- The fitness facility operates under a “three strikes and you’re out” policy concerning ID swipe-in. Those who do not have the proper ID on the fourth time will not be granted admittance to the CUB.
- Proper dress is required. Shirts and shoes must be worn at all times. Sports bras are not considered shirts. Shoes for all fitness areas must be rubber-soled and non-marking. Sandals are prohibited in these areas as well. In order to protect machinery upholstery, clothing with buttons and zippers may not be worn in the fitness areas.
- There is a 30-minute time limit per each piece of equipment. Users are expected to exit the machinery after 30 minutes even if no one appears to be waiting.
- The concept of “working-in” should be practiced. This means not sitting on equipment while resting in between sets, but rather walking around to cool down and allowing others to work in.
- Pre-moistened antibacterial disinfectant wipes are available in the weight room and cardio room. Each equipment user is responsible for and expected to use the wipes to clean the equipment immediately after use. Areas to be cleaned include handles, seating areas, control panels, and anywhere else where perspiration might accumulate.
- Food is not permitted in the fitness areas. Drinks in spill-proof containers are permitted.
- Loose personal items are not permitted in the fitness areas and should be secured in available lockers located in the locker rooms.
- The use of profanity, loud grunting, talking on cell phones while in the fitness areas, etc. is prohibited and considered unacceptable workout behavior. Students/patrons who exhibit such behavior will be asked to immediately vacate the premises and may be denied further access to the CUB.
