Whatever students feel about the University's commitment to student fitness, whether it be a matter of activities or equipment, nearly all stress that maintaining one's health is a personal decision.
A minority of non-athlete undergraduates have abandoned Harvard facilities in favor of Wellbridge, a fitness club located next to the Charles Hotel.
According to a Wellbridge employee, the number of student members has gone up due to a reduction in the club's minimum age requirement--from 21 to 18--that was targeted specifically at undergraduates.
"There are a good many people who would like to be fit, and don't do anything, but I don't think that's specific to Harvard," says Thomas H. Price '02. "It's mostly a question of how you prioritize it."
But some students emphasized that in order to stay calm and focused amid Harvard's constant deluge of papers, meetings and activities, they need to stay fit.
