Chapel and Bell The Chapel and Bell constitute a unique historic landmark, representing the University's shift in focus on religion to a now more secular institution . The University originally had ties to Protestant Orthodoxy, which made the Chapel and Bell the main daily hub of compulsory religious services. It was also used to signal the beginning and end of University classes, as well as emergencies. Now the use of the Chapel and Bell has changed, while maintaining its traditional importance. The bell is now rung to indicate celebration, particularly of athletic achievement, and the chapel is used primarily for tourism, as well as meetings and events (Earls). Intramural Fields The Intramural Fields surround Lake Herrick at the eastern end of campus where many outdoor venues host recreational sports. Not only does it accommodate competitors, like me, but it also includes a fitness trail for those who like to run or walk while enjoying nature. Many college students collectively engage in many physical activities in the “I-Fields” to avoid weight gain or to lose weight. This shows that many college students are health-oriented regardless of their intended majors or beliefs. Not only do the Intramural Fields host recreational sports in all divisions, but the I-Fields host special events such as Relay for Life. Mell Hall Dorm The Mell Hall Dorm is part of the Hill Community and is unique in the fact that it is an all dormitory female. Very few sites on campus are segregated by gender, other than the bathrooms, of course, but since there are more females than males enrolled in each entering class, there needs to be more female than male accommodation. Other women's dormitories on campus include Church Hall, Lipscomb Hall, and Soule Hall.

On top of that, Dooley and the Dawgs won the national championship in 1980; and under his leadership as athletic director from 1979 to 2004, "the Bulldogs won a total of 23 national championships and 78 SEC crowns" (Athletics News). To honor Dooley and all the accomplishments he brought to the university, UGA named the new athletic complex in his honor. Therefore, on November 29, 2008, the University held a dedication ceremony of the "Vince Dooley Athletic Complex" in which the unveiling of a "statue depicting a victorious Dooley hoisted on the shoulders of the players of his national championship team" took place 1980" (Athletics News). The statue represents the University celebrating the passion for athletics and the electrifying feeling that competition and sport bring to campus. Works cited
