CRA is located in the Physical Education, Recreation and Event Center (PER Event Center) on the Auraria Campus. The PER Event Center is a shared facility dedicated to serving the academic, recreation and athletic needs of Auraria Campus students, faculty and staff. Because providing education to our students is the primary mission of the Auraria institutions, academic programs have priority scheduling in the building.
The PER Event Center is located on the north side of campus, between the Plaza Building and North Class Room.
Our partners and colleagues in the PE Event Center include:
