Despite reaching more than 3,000 signatures, a petition crafted by junior journalism student Jakob Janoski in hopes of reopening the Rec Center for student use has yet to result in any change from WVU.
The petition was released last month on change.org and caught the attention of the WVU administration. However, despite the petition's recognition, there has been little progress overall.
According to Janoski, there was no new information given out during the Campus Conversation last month.
âThey held firm that the Student Rec Center will be staying closed," Janoski said. "I do believe that this petition has politely put the University into a position in which they have to respond to the people who signed the petition, which is a good thing.â
