The spa aims to create a magical experience in the comfort of McMahon’s gray walls and carpets.
A 6% increase in tuition and room and board for the 2023-24 academic year was announced March 30 in emails sent to the Fordham community by University President Tania Tetlow, JD. This announcement is credited to new renovations scheduled to take place this summer to install the RamSpa, a bathroom and extension of McMahon’s RamFit Center that will replace the plush fourteenth-floor lounge that ate my dollar attempting a Coke today to buy.
Many Fordham students have complained about the lack of an opportunity to take a nice, relaxing bubble bath after a stressful day. This change stems from a desire to advance university mental health efforts and increase university resident happiness. That definitely gets an A-Plus from me and my closest colleagues.
“I’m thrilled with this new installation,” said Funk E. Aroma, FCLC (Fordham College at Lincoln Center) 24. “As an aspiring Twitch streamer, I don’t have much incentive to stop grinding and take a shower. Maybe that will change that.
Between reservations, a Roomba mop scrubs the tub to ensure minimal cross-contamination and reduce the spread of athlete’s foot.
The bath room includes mood lighting without candles, various bubble bath solutions, Crayola bath markers and a Ramses-themed rubber ducky. There will also be a cinema-size TV equipped with Tetlow’s personal streaming accounts, as well as a Bluetooth surround sound system. If you wish, the presidential dog Archie will play out the Lady-and-the-Tramp spaghetti scene with you to maximize your happiness.
Many students may choose to play their personal music in favor of the plaintive sounds of RamSpa’s companion, Moaning Myrtle. She will be available to monitor the water temperature, replenish towels and give massages using the sound waves generated by the sounds of her misery. Visitors are encouraged not to upset Myrtle about RamSpa’s plumbing systems.
McKeon and McMahon Halls residents can reserve their bath time on 25Live in increments of sixty and one hundred and twenty minutes. They are given 3 bath sessions per semester before being transferred to an off-campus spa house. Between reservations, a Roomba mop scrubs the tub to ensure minimal cross-contamination and reduce the spread of athlete’s foot.
Despite initial concerns about increasing tuition and room and board fees, the decision to install a new spa at McMahon Hall appears to be a positive step forward for overall campus community satisfaction and reflects recent efforts to increase transparency of the university against expenses.
