I love this university - especially my interactions with my teachers and leadership. They are all so accessible. I have a friend who went to a UC nearby, and they say they have never seen nor heard from the President or Dean of their school. I have personally interacted with both at lunch and walking down the halls. THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! The support I've received definitely helps me succeed in class. Now for the not-so-good. This is not a party school. There are things to do, but just not a lot. It is expensive, but my teachers tell me that students here earn more than most others in the Bay Area. The food is excellent but gets repetitive. The housing is old and needs a remodel. The campus is quiet and in the middle of a neighborhood (big mansions). I feel entirely safe here, and most students feel the same. It's a great place to come, get a degree, and then move on.
