The Ohio University Aquatic Center is an untapped resource for many students. As with the Ping Center, students are able to go swimming for free during lap swim or enjoy a few jumps off the diving board during recreational swim, but that is just the beginning. The Aquatic Center offers great courses in lifeguard training, lifeguard challenges and lifeguard instructor courses. This would be a great way for students to look into a new summer job lifeguarding, or maybe you want to get your LGI to be the head guard this summer. Hey, and after taking a class, you might even want to apply for a job at the Aquatic Center. The ladies might want to check out the sun deck on the second floor to help maximize their tan. The fact of the matter is, the Aquatic Center offers more opportunities than most students realize or take advantage of.
