- The ARC (Anteater Recreational Center)
College Prowler Take
All of the facilities on and around campus definitely add to the overall physical attraction of UC Irvine, and most of these facilities are fairly new. Because of the plethora of more-than-adequate student-related activity centers on campus, car-less students and commuters waiting between classes will not be left standing around. They can most likely be found at the ARC (the Anteater Recreation Center), which is perhaps the most popular place on campus. The Student Center is mostly described by students as anything but spectacular, but most agree that it still serves its purpose. While the more studious students choose to study or read there, the more laid-back students view the Student Center as their own personal Holiday Inn because of its diverse lounging—or better said, many places to nap—indoor shopping, and eating options. For places of physical activity beyond sleeping and studying, the ZOT Zone is available for students who are really into gaming or for anyone who simply wants to live a second childhood for a few hours or so. The ARC is a must see and do for the more physically conscious and active types. If you want to better fit the stereotypical image of a Southern California college student, it might be a good idea to make frequent trips to the ARC.

The facilities at UCI are really good. The ARC has a lot of facilities and programs for students. You can participate in many programs and classes, such as belly dancing and cooking classes. The Student Center is a good place, too. You can eat and hang out with friends here during lunch hour, and it also offers places where you can study, especially during finals week when is open really late.

Every staff member is helpful and always willing to take time to help a student out with whatever she needs help with. The facilities offer a lot of resources for research papers and experiments.

The Student Center is nice, but I wish there were more choices of food here. The libraries are nice, but it's really hard to find study place during exam times. As for the athletic center, I guess it is pretty nice.

Everything is very fancy and nice. The ARC was great, but now it's getting really crowded. They need to create more basketball courts. There are so many rooms to study here, it's insane. Where ever you go, you can find a good place to set down and study.

FactsWhat To Do on Campus
During class breaks, you can shoot some pool or play a few arcade games in the Zot Zone, work off some midterm-crammed calories at the ARC, or head over to the University Town Center and grab a bite to eat, as well as catch an indie flick.
Favorite Things To Do
Hanging out in the Zot Zone, the game and recreation room in the Student Center, or across the street at the University Town Center are popular must-do activities for most UCI students. At lunch, local bands jam out in the lounge area while students enjoy their meals at the student center. Since students do happen to live in image-conscious OC, working out at the ARC is not uncommon. Also, poetry readings and political lectures occur across campus sites mostly during after-class hours.
