Reflections on college visits

Familiar a bit with UCLA and a bit with USC. Like you, I like both campuses. But, not a "fan" of the area around USC once you step off the campus. To me, it is pretty rundown area. I know that they have volunteer "police" that patrol the neighborhoods outside of campus proper and provide walking escorts, etc. as needed, but I still would not feel real safe there. UCLA is to me, in a much better neighborhood.

We noticed that too. Also the university has a deal with Lyft for free rides for students in the evenings within a certain radius of school. There’s a reason the place is so expensive.

At UCLA, did you see the Jim Morrison locker?
Nope. They didn’t mention it.

That locker was in the computer science building when I visited UCLA.
It's full of stickers, and it is said that most stickers are laced with cocaine

By the way, we saw the college republicans setting up a booth at Berkeley. Brave young souls.
