Student Summer Membership

If you are not enrolled in summer classes, you may purchase an IMA Student Summer Quarter Membership. Spring Quarter students need to present their valid Spring Quarter 2009 Husky Card for purchase. New and returning students may become members with their Autumn 2009 Enrollment Confirmation Acknowledgement from the Office of the Registrar.

There are two ways in which a student not enrolled in summer classes may utilize the IMA during the summer:

  • Students may purchase a Summer IMA Membership for $48 ($52.56 with tax), beginning Tuesday, May 26, 2009. The membership is valid for use from the date of purchase through Friday, October 9, 2009.
  • OR

  • A student may purchase a Single Use Ticket (on each occasion of use) beginning Saturday, June 27, 2009, with his/her Spring Quarter 2009 Husky Card for $4 per visit ($4.38 with tax).

Your current Spring Quarter 2009 Husky Card is valid through Friday, June 26, 2009.

You are responsible for any towel issued to you. A fine will be assessed for a lost towel. You may obtain a clean towel for a soiled one at anytime. Do not leave towels on benches or in the pool area.

Vacating Baskets:

If you no longer desire use of a basket and decide to vacate, PLEASE RETURN TOWEL AND COMBINATION LOCK TO ISSUE AREA PERSONNEL, as you are responsible for these items. Be sure your name is removed from the issue book before you leave the issue window so you will not be assessed a fine.

Protection of Personal Equipment:

Baskets and/or lockers should be kept locked at all times, even when exchanging a towel or taking a shower. To prevent theft of personal belongings, be sure to spin dial on the lock one or two times after closing it. Pull down hard on the lock to make sure it is secure. You are also encouraged not to bring valuable items or large sums of money to the locker room.
