The ARC is going to be renamed the Michael P. O’Brien Athletics and Recreation Center. I think this is kinda lame, but also not really a big deal. I kinda liked how the ARC was just the ARC, much like how our Library is just Library.
O'Brien seems like an okay guy, and apparently he went here before it was a college, and then he went to UMD. So that is cool how it's getting named after an alumnus. But he is a real estate realtor which is lame. I think it'll just still be called the ARC though. But maybe in like emails about the Basketball team they'll say "Basketball game in the Michael P. O'Brien Athletics and Recreation Center", and then everyone is going to be like, wait when did that happen/who is he.
I don't know why they didn't give it a name when they first opened it.
Im really impressed with how this blog is going. keep on keepin on.
