Student tires of waiting in long lines for exercising

Call me crazy, but a university the size of Penn State should have more than three small facilities for its students work out. Although a fitness pass only costs $10, a countless number of students may never be able to use any of the facilities because of the long lines. I don't know about most of you, but wasting 45 minutes of the day standing in line does not appeal to me.

Penn State needs to build a new physical fitness facility that can accommodate everyone who wishes to maintain some physical and mental health, or at the very least, make the current gyms free for everyone. Until the university builds new facilities, it appears that I will be waiting in long lines with all the other students wishing to exercise. By the way, where exactly does my $10 go anyway?
