Pollock Halls is the third-largest residence area on campus. Special features include the Pollock Laptop Library, a computer lab, The Mix (a venue that features a convenience store, a coffee bar, a grill area, and a stage for live entertainment), rigaTony's (offering pizza, pasta, an antipasto buffet, and hearth-baked breads) and Pollock Dining Commons. A Residential Computing (ResCom) Office is located in Pollock Commons—and is staffed by students who are experienced in assisting with various computer issues.

Pollock is just blocks away from McCoy Natatorium (swimming pools), tennis courts, the varsity track and field facility, Greenberg Indoor Sports Complex (an ice-skating rink), Eisenhower Auditorium, and HUB-Robeson Center.
