Student Recreation and Wellness Center
Celebrate Rec Day (NIRSA Day) with CSUSB Recreation and Wellness Center! Join us all day for free snacks, t-shirt giveaways, and a lineup of competitions and activities across the facility.
Why we celebrate: NIRSA history:
Rec Day is recognized across campus recreation to honor NIRSA’s founding on February 22, 1950, when Dr. William Wasson and colleagues gathered for the first conference that helped launch what became NIRSA—now known as “NIRSA: Leaders in Collegiate Recreation.” It’s a day to celebrate the power of recreation to build well-being, connection, and inclusive communities on campuses.
