Campus ChampionLouise Mahar, assistant director for fitness, sums up her 20 years at SUNY Cortland in one word – “growth.” Upon arrival in 1996, the fitness facility was a gymnasium surrounded by an indoor track. The men played loud music in a weight room at one end and the women took aerobic classes in the open gym. Her first quest was to create a women’s weight training area. Today, Louise oversees 40 weekly group exercise classes and 22 physical trainers, teaches yoga and two kinesiology classes and organizes mind/body and cardio/weight training programs. Always listening to her students, she speaks volumes about the importance of wellness.
