At the UCI School of the Arts. When I was attending school here, this was a grassy hillside with a few paved paths. The building to the right didn’t exist. I did, however, manage to get a photo of the area during construction.

UCI Student Center: Then and Now
Composite of two photos of the University of California, Irvine Student Center: One taken in 1997, the other in 2007.
The biggest difference (aside from the time of day) is that the Student Center itself was torn down and replaced with a new complex, which is why I focused on the center area for the cut-out. The Irvine Barclay Theatre, Administration Building and Student Services II, ring road, and the office building in the distance are all still there.
