Quinnipiac University’s new $45 million recreation center part of plan to ‘nurture the community’

University officials, along with students, faculty and local community members, officially opened the new Recreation and Wellness Center in a ribbon-cutting ceremony Friday, with the goal of providing students with “social, emotional and physical well-being support.” The $45-million building also is home to the university’s partnership with Hartford HealthCare. The university’s student health services merged with the health system last year in a $5 million deal. The agreement was to grow the Connecticut health care workforce by creating a career pipeline for students and expanding nursing and medical programs at Quinnipiac. Quinnipiac began construction of the Recreation and Wellness Center in 2021, and partially opened the building to students last fall.
