David Braley Athletic Centre (DBAC)

1 sound

This is the David Braley Athletic Centre, a hub for athletics, academics, and recreation. Students here may be studying in the Learning Commons, attending extracurricular events, or working out in Pulse, the free campus gym. The gym alone adds layers of sound: weights clanging, treadmills humming, music blasting. Pair that with group activity noise and conversations, and it becomes an echo chamber of constant shifts in volume. For those with sensory processing differences, the unpredictability of this soundscape makes it difficult to regulate focus or comfort.
