The transformation of three American-size squash courts to three international-size ones has gotten mixed response.
While students say they are glad to have the opportunity to play on international-size courts, some worry that with fewer courts available, they may have to wait for playing space. Post-renovation, there will only be three courts, and Robert D.A. Campbell ’08 observed that there are currently almost always at least three courts occupied.
And not all students want Hemenway to change in the first place.
Arjun K. Manrai ’08 says, “I think it’s a pretty nice gym. It’s usually quieter than the MAC; the machines are more available.”
Brendan J. Corcoran ’07 said, “There are areas when you’re walking through the gym, you feel like you’re in a submarine almost, but I think it adds to the character of the gym, I preferred it to the MAC.”
