| uhm...lets see - we're talking about snow...measured in feet - not even inches.
also, while i AM on an island - which means cold winters and hot summers, it's still about 32 degrees farenheit...but its like 10 degrees farenheit up there.
BRRRRR...i also happen to be canadian...but i was only born there so i dont think it gave me much of a gene against harsh winters haha.
but then...i dont even own a coat. havent in the like last 6 years. hmm...maybe i'm not going to die after all.
bleh, forget weather - i just don't like being in the middle of nowhere. | |

| chino hills by la actually gets pretty cold at night too, but nothing like ithaca at all.
think of it this way though - if global warming continues, ithaca's gonna be the next vacation spot. heh | |

| ehhh sorrrry!
:S
however, are there any strong summer programs on the west coast?
cornell, cmu, etc. are a little out of my price range...
but i would definitely consider any california programs! | |

| I know that USC offers a summer pre-arch program, but haven't heard much about it. Though I don't think high school seniors can apply to this (I could be wrong), I'd definitely recommend harvard's CDisco program. | |

| so_ein, I think Harvard's program is more geared towards students already in college and considering going for an M.Arch. The statistic is somewhere - it's a very small percentage of high school seniors (you have to have graduated HS already to go to it).
As for west coast programs, I think you'd be the best off at USC. Unless SCI-ARC has a program for high schoolers (I know they have one for current college students). Maybe CalArts has one too, I'm not sure. | |

| Doesn't Cal Poly SLO have a summer pre-arch program as well? And i'm pretty sure that Sciarc only has the summer program for undergrads and grads | |
