College Prowler Take
Thousands of dollars are spent on the facilities at USF each year, and everything is getting bigger and better as more students come to the school. While this is great for students, it also means added tuition costs and higher fees. Many of the facilities are crowded during peak hours, so be prepared to wait to use some of the exercise equipment at the gym or the pool tables in the game room. The variety of activities on campus is superb, and most students can easily find something that suits their own personal interests. USF also plays home to the Sun Dome, a large arena that hosts concerts, conventions, lectures, and some sports competitions. USF offers dozens of things for students to do, so those who claim to be bored have no excuse. As more students come to USF, the facilities will continue to grow. There is still plenty of space around campus to build, so the number of facilities will increase with time. Overall, the facilities on campus are clean, up-to-date, and most of them are free for USF students to use.

Most of the facilities are pretty decent. They are not as great of some other campuses around the state, but they do what they can for the students. The gym is one of the best facilities on campus. The computers are some of the best around. |

The gym is okay, but it needs to be bigger. The computers in the computer labs are okay, although they tend to have their issues now and then, shutting down on people and whatnot. The Marshall Center, being the main student activities building, could be improved greatly. To have a nicer Marshall Center would definitely make coming on campus more fun, but obviously there is controversy on how to pay for a new one. |

The student center could be nice in the future because more renovations are in the works. The Recreation Center is very nice (and big) but usually gets crowded during peak hours. |
FactsWhat To Do on Campus
Between classes, students can play tennis, basketball, lift weights, or swim at the Recreation Center, get a bite to eat at one of the various restaurants around campus, play video games, Ping-Pong, or pool in the Marshall Center Games Room, or check out one various museums and galleries located around campus.
Favorite Things To Do
“Movies on the Lawn” (MOTL) is a weekly USF tradition, in which free, recently-released movies are shown for students. Intramural sports are a great way for student groups to get involved with some recreational athletic activity. The Bull Market is a weekly marketplace where students can purchase second-hand books, jewelry, and food. Students also enjoy basketball games, football games, and watching theater performances. The Marshall Center game room is open late and has pool, table tennis, and video games for students.
Movie Theater on Campus
- None, but Marshall Center shows movies on the lawn, and there is a Student Activities Center in the Union that shows movies.
