College Prowler Take

The University of Oregon offers some of the most extravagant, up-to-date facilities in the nation. The administration is always making the University more appealing, from the expansion of Autzen stadium to the building of a new business complex. The Erb Memorial Union (EMU) is at the center of the UO campus. It has two coffeeshops including the ever-popular Buzz, which has an open mic/poetry night on Mondays and Fridays.

With several renovations underway and constant updating of older buildings, the University is capable of keeping up with student needs by offering the highest-quality facilities. Within the last five years, the University has revamped nearly every building or facility to improve it in some way. A top-of-the-line Student Recreation Center, the best sports arenas and athletic facilities around, and a student center to serve every need are all a part of the UO experience, and you’ll be hard pressed to find students who could ask for more.

Facilities are in excellent shape! I have never seen a rundown building anywhere on campus, and I’ve never even seen a chair which had torn or stained fabric.

Autzen stadium is amazing! It provides an energetic atmosphere for football games. It is impossible not to be overwhelmed with school spirit. The student recreation center provides an excellent variety of weightlifting and cardio machines. It is always very clean and spacious. The computer labs are rather sterile, but they serve their purpose. The Erb Memorial Union is comfortable and a great place to study, but it is extremely difficult to navigate.

Our school has been getting a lot of donations from alumni recently. They recently finished building the Law School and also finished Lillis Hall and Gilbert Hall. Also, the Museum of Natural and Cultural History has reopened recently, as well as the Living-Learning Center, a state-of-the-art facility with large residence hall rooms and two classrooms, a performance hall, café, lobby, and meeting rooms.

Everything is getting a makeover! Our rec center now has a rappelling wall, and you can take one or two credit classes on almost any sport.

We are very fortunate enough to have very nice facilities. All are very new, and if not new, they are extremely well-kept. The University, like many others, is heavily geared towards our athletic teams. With that being said, we have some of the best athletic facilities, if not the best, in the country.
