UGA Arch. Students consider a tradition to walk under the arch only when you graduate from college or you’ll never graduate. This tradition was probably made by some trashed freshmen who never graduated

Good place to stand up and speak out for the rights of the unborn! Lots of Leftist/"progressive" types come through there who tend to use their middle fingers and emotions rather than logic and reason to engage worldviews with which they disagree. That's most unfortunate. However, this is a good venue at which to seek a return to the classic liberal concept of a free and public exchange of ideas.

Ummm…disappointing. It appears to be a wrought iron arch over a sidewalk to campus. No decorations. No frills. No thrills.

Best Arch I've ever seen! However, be sure to watch your step when going down the steps. I nearly sprained my ankle because one side of the arch has a very small step and the other side has a pretty steep step because it's on a big of incline.
