Respectfully submitted Brenda L. Black CSUN Secretary -9- UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA, LAS VEGAS 4505 Maryland Parkway Las Vegas, Nevada 89154 Department oi Health, Physical Education and Recreation (702) 739-3291 •geof Education May 6, 1975 Mr. Joseph M. Karaffa CSUN President University of Nevada, Las Vegas Las Vegas, Nevada Dear Joe: I have attempted to answer all of the questions that you had in your letter of May 1 regarding the new Physical Education Complex. A copy of the proposed intramural schedule for the coming year along with the rules and regulations has been enclosed. However, I would like to point out that over the years the lack of student interest in the intramural program has been apparent. Following are the answers to the questions you posed: A. Facility Responsibility 1. Mr. Bill Daniel is the Facility Coordinator for the new Physical Education Complex. B. Priorities for Use 1. We have indicated this information on our previous letter but the hours from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. are usually reserved for Intercollegiate Athletics. 2. Continuing education students will be charged at least as much as or more than the assessed fee of $5. 3. See attached proposal 4. University events would include any activity or function scheduled by the Administration which would involve all faculty, staff and students. Eg; Homecoming, graduation etc. 5. Organizations not recognized by the CSUN can use the facility. As a department we are interested in servicing all student organizations whether it is an official organization or not. NOTE: Whenever a part of the facility is not scheduled either with a class or an intramural activity then it will become a free period of time. It is difficult to determine the size of an intramural program until we have our official sign-up to determine the student participation. University oi Nevada System Mr. Joseph Karaffa - 2 - May 6, 1975 6. Our contention is that faculty, students and staff could enjoy this free time together without any one group having priority. 7. We have an obligation as a University to provide a service to the community. However, the community is the last priority. C. Procedure for Scheduling Facilities Regarding procedures for scheduling the facilities, the department has established a request form. Anyone wishing to use an area in the new facility will complete the form and submit it to the Facility Coordinator. As long as there is not a conflict, use will be granted. If there is a conflict then the priorities list which you have in your possession will be followed. D. Use Regulations 1. Regarding the "special events" and "special fee schedule" this would apply primarily to Continuing Education and community use. In answer to your other questions, the facility is scheduled to be open until 10 p.m. Based on use we will determine whether or not we extend the hours to midnight. We also feel that it is of the utmost importance that a $5 fee be assessed to administrators, faculty, staff and students. I agree that a $5 recreational fee should be charged to all students but I feel that there should be equality in that assessment for all members of the University community rather than just students. However, any of the programs offered through Continuing Education may require fees in excess of the required $5. Eg; Arts and Crafts, Scuba Diving etc. The facility will be open on weekends and we are looking forward to it being v _d. I hope that I have answered any questions that you might have. Please feel free to contact me at any time for additional information. Good luck in your senate meeting.1 John Bayer, Chairman Department of Physical Education Enclosures JB:ik cc/Dean Saville Bill Scoble Sincerely PROPOSED INTRAMURAL PROGRAM UNLV - 1975-76 Fall Semester Tennis Singles - Weekly - Afternoons Doubles - Weekly - Afternoons Flag Football Men's League - Weekends - Afternoons Powderpiff League - Weekends - Afternoons Handball Singles - Weekly - Afternoons Doubles - Weekly - Afternoons Wrestling Tournament - Afternoons as needed Billiards Tournaments - Afternoons as needed Swimming Tournament - Weekend Badminton Singles - Week Day - Afternoons Doubles - Week Day - Afternoons Weight!ifting Tournament - Weekend Spring Semester Track Tournament - Weekends • Softball Men's League - Weekends - Afternoons Powderpuff League - Weekends - Afternoons Tenni s Singles - Weekly - Afternoons Doubles - Weekly - Afternoons Handball Singles - Weekly - Afternoons Doubles - Weekly - Afternoons Volleyball 6 Man League - Week Day - Afternoons 2 Man League - Week Day - Afternoons Billiards Tournaments - Afternoons as needed Badminton Singles - Weekly - Afternoons Doubles - Weekly - Afternoons Ping Pong Tournament - Afternoons as needed INTRAMURAL AND RECREATIONAL SHORTS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND RECREATION UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA, LAS VEGAS LAS VEGAS, NEVADA 1974 - 1975 INTRODUCTION The Department of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation sponsors an extensive .program of intramural sports for men and women.

The next Senate meeting is scheduled for Thursday, May 8, 1975, and I would like to present this plan to the Senate at that time. Following are the questions that need to be answered. A. Facility Responsibility 1. In regards to managing the Physical Education facility, who will be the Facility Coordinator? B. Priorities for Use 1. We would appreciate an estimate of intercollegiate athletic practice and game times and dates. 2. In regards to Continuing Education scheduled events, what fee will be assessed to Continuing Education students? t 3. In regards to Intramurals, what sports will be played in Intramurals? Will faculty, administration and staff members be offering teams? What is the estimated total hour usage for all facilities for Intramural programming per week? ; 4. We would appreciate a definition of "university events". 5. Will the University student organisations be required to obtain CSUN recognition as they do presently? Will Intramurals be scheduled, as they presently are, for the free play period of 6-10 p.m., Mondays through Fridays. Letter to Mr. Bayer May 1, 1975 Page 2 6. In regards to non-structured play, among students, faculty and staff, who will have first priority for scheduling? 7. If there is a mandatory recreation fee charged to all students, what usage will the public have in the complex and for whht periods of the free time? In regards to the "NOTE", what and who determines "authorized use" of any facility? C. Procedure for Scheduling Facilities 1. In regards to the master calendar that shall be cooperatively developed, what student input shall there be in completing said calendar? 2. We would like copies of the departmental request form and will CSUN be considered a department? D. Use Regulations 1. We would like a definition of "special events and special arrangements", and a copy of the "special fee schedule". Will the estimated $50,0'00 be enough to keep the Physical Education facilities open until 12 o'clock as we discussed in our meeting? We also feel that it is of the utmost importance that a $5,00 fee be assessed to administrators, faculty, staff and Continuing Education students. I agree that a $5.00 recreation fee should be charged to all students but I feel there should be equality in that assessment for all members of the University community rather than just students. John, in our meeting the subject of the facility being open on weekends was discussed, and it was my opinion that the estimated $50,000 would allow the facility to remain open on weekends. Would you please respond to this question. I realize that these are questions that will involve some time to answer, however, before 1 present the proposed manda-tory fee to the Consolidated Students Senate, it is important that they be answered. I agree that we have a very beautiful facility, and I realize that control is Important to insure efficient use of the facility. We at CSUN are looking forward to the opening of Letter to My. Bayer May 1, 19 75 Page 3 the facility, and hope to promote the Physical Education Dept and the new Physical Education facility in whatever means poss ible. Tour cooperation in responding to this letter will be deeply appreciated. With warn regards, Joseph M.
