Because of the theft of equipment and the continued use of athletic facilities by persons unrelated to Eastern University, Director of Security Jack Sheehan and Head Men’s Basketball Coach Matt Nadelhoffer were instructed by Bettie Ann Brigham, vice president of student development, to formulate a stricter policy regarding use of these areas.
The following is the new policy for the use of the gyms and fitness room.
