Students understand that leisure time physical activity (LTPA) is important for physical wellness, mental health, and academic success, yet many students do not engage with campus rec programs. This session explores varying levels of constraints and negotiation strategies for college students. Factors will be examined based on class standing, gender identity, race/ethnicity, and disability status.
