The primary purpose of the Health Education Building is to provide recreational opportunities and programs in the following areas: informal recreation, fitness, intramurals, and non-credit group exercise classes. The priority of the Health Education Building is to serve students (whose membership is included in their student fees), and faculty/staff who have purchased memberships. Only after the needs of the primary user group have been met, will other entities such as academic classes, athletic teams, outside groups, special event, summer camps and conferences, or student organizations be considered. Adequate fees will be charged to these entities.

The Health Education Building will operate out of the Division of Student Affairs via the Department of Campus Recreation/Intramural Programs. They will manage the facility along with an advisory board. The composite of the advisory board is as follows:

4 Students (at least one being from the Department of Recreation and Park Administration)
2 Faculty (one being from the Department of Recreation and Park Administration)
1 Staff
Director of Campus Recreation/Intramural Programs – ex officio
