We show off these resources to prospective students, who (and often, their parents) are amazed by the diverse wealth of opportunities which students will have available at WPI.
Once we get to WPI, however, we often find ourselves swamped in studies and responsibilities. After a while, we stick with only those clubs that really interest us, and use the resources that only pertain to us. This makes sense; one wouldn't expect a typical biology student to use the artificial intelligence lab, for example.
Sometimes, however, we might find that we are restricting ourselves too much in the resources we use. Not only do some of these resources provide once-in-a-lifetime opportunities (where else can you use a magnificent weight room for free, or see sneak previews of movies?), but they also provide excellent professional services. The CSDC, for example, is well-suited to discuss problems or concerns that any student might have about anything.
Maybe some students don't know what resources are available, or maybe they figure that they don't have the time to use the resources. When you think of what fantastic resources are available to you, it is sometimes bewildering to see them go unused by so many individuals. Take advantage of what you have! There's a reason why these resources exist - YOU!
