Baruch College ARC

Positive experience: I go to the main gym in the ARC to watch the basketball games for the D3 Baruch Bearcats in the CUNYAC. To access the Main Gym, enter the Newman Vertical Camus on 24th and Lex and follow the Bearcat footprints. You can take the elevator to B2 if you don't want to walk down two floors. On B2 walk through the lobby with restrooms and views to the pool and other athletic facilities. There's a sign to the Main Gym. Usually one side of the gym is open for seating. The place is colorful, with signs proclaiming Bearcat nation and home of the Bearcats. There are banners with championship dates that haven't been updated in a few years. You sit close to the action. The Bearcats have been a contender for the CUNYAC championship every year since the ARC opened in 2002. There's an article from the NY Times reprinted and framed in the lobby about the opening of the facility for its first game against SUNY New Paltz.
