Campus Visit Notes for University of California-Berkeley


Visit Description:

I kind of got lost finding the "entrance" of the campus because there's no real "entrance" to the campus and because the blocks were so small that I kept driving a bit too far.

Someone was up in the Sather Tower playing music and at times banging randomly on some keys.

I was a bit shocked at how many people went into the library on a Sunday morning to study. I believe there were at least fifteen students who went in one of the libraries while our tour guide was talking.

Not all of the students seemed to worry about their academics. There were a lot of people in the quad playing random games, having a picnic, and stretching for a game of Quidditch.
