Academic Resource Center new location to open Nov. 28
By: Chris Hogan
The Academic Resource Center (ARC) will be relocating from the third floor of Charles Dana Hall to the fifth floor of Wahlstrom Library on November 28 according to George Estrada, Vice President of Facilities.
It will include plenty of space for multiple usage at a time. Estrada told me that there will be private rooms for study sessions with peer tutors and two classrooms that will be used with comfortable seating and wireless Internet. Another added benefit will be an area designated for all new computers for students to use during their time spent there.
Estrada said that the move comes at a critical time since final exams will follow a few weeks after the move and he expects that it will be a major improvement over the current one.

UB Soccer Teams to Play at Knights Field on Sunday
By: Chris Hogan
Due to the inclement weather that most of New England dealt with on Saturday, it forced the University of Bridgeport women's and men's soccer to have their games at Queens College postponed. Both games will now be played at Knights Field on the UB campus on Sunday. The women's game will be at 3 p.m. and the men's at 6 p.m.
The Lady Purple Knights have already clinched the East Coast Conference regular season title and will take on the number four seed at Knights Field on Thursday at 6 p.m. If the regular season ended today, Bridgeport host Molloy College in the semi-final round.
The men's soccer team right now is ranked third in the ECC and their final regular season rank for the conference tournament will depend on their results tomorrow against Queens and how N.Y.I.T. finishes against St. Thomas Aquinas College. In order to get the second seed, the Purple Knights need win on Sunday and see N.Y.I.T. loose or tie with STAC.
