Answering questions at Boston College O’Neill Library
I did answer, but sometimes the little post-its go off and hide! You can always see my answers on my blog: https://library.bc.edu/answerwall/. The answer was: 12/11/19 from Campus Rec: “Campus Recreation allows community members to purchase memberships during the Summer, but not during the academic year. We keep the facility foot traffic during the semester to the students and faculty/staff that are directly affiliated with BC.”
I don’t know the answer to that question, but I will have my assistants attempt to find out. Update 12/11/19 from Campus Rec: “Campus Recreation allows community members to purchase memberships during the Summer, but not during the academic year. We keep the facility foot traffic during the semester to the students and faculty/staff that are directly affiliated with BC.”
The last I heard from the walls in St. Clements is that the removal of the former Plex is mostly done and that we will now be looking to reclaim that land. Once finished, it will have additional green space, tennis courts, basketball courts, and additional parking.
Terry Gilman (Plex Facilities Mgr.) tells me they work hard to maintain the “ideal” temperature of about 72F; it’s hard in an aging building. They can’t open doors if it’s below 65F, because the heating system will crank up. Fans are put in place in warmer months. The spin room and multipurpose room have ac; the main gym does not, but they will open the big doors when it gets to 65-70F.
