"I have worked with Mizzou Rec for about four years. They are excellent in working with students and their academic schedules. They primarily hire students, so it is a student run facility in terms of day to day operations. The professional staff are very dedicated to their work and communicate very well with the student staff. The recreation center is one of the best high education recreation facilities in the nation, and a lot of that must be attributed to the staff."
