Blaster card access should be implemented on the top floor of the recreation center on the door across from Subway.
It's the principle that I have to walk all the way around the rec center just to enter it. Worried about people getting in without blastercards? Just put a camera that runs a live feed to a computer at the desk in the weightroom. Furthermore the scan for the door could also be your scan to "check in" to the rec center.
That would be convenient, however in order to have another entrance there would need to be recreation center staff present. That would require paying more staff, which would increase future student fees.

There would not need to be any hiring of additional staff. As I said in my comment a camera could be installed for remote monitoring from the weight room. Furthermore the weight room attendant's desk could be moved to that hallway once you enter through the double doors. The weight room attendant is generally not paying attention / doing homework anyway so moving their desk would do no harm.
