UC San Diego or UC Davis?

Hi @ruggedcrocodile‌,

We did go to Picnic Day and it was very busy! Lots of people and lots going on! It was a sunny and gorgeous day and we got to see the band play (which was one of my goals, as it is something my son may join) and they played very energetically and with lots of spirit! Dogs (on-leash) are allowed, and so there were many families, and their dogs there. It was a very nice, upbeat, active place; felt very family friendly and relaxed. Lots of people hanging out on the lawns in front of the MU (and many other places); it felt 100% like its name: Picnic Day! Just a fun, positive, friendly vibe. I liked that.

Btw: While we were at Triton Day on April 5 in San Diego, UC Davis also was having their “Decision Davis” day for admitted students (I would have loved for us to attend this . . if only UCD and UCSD presentations could have been on a different days!) . In case you didn’t see it . . I just noticed that they posted the video from the Welcome on 4/5: http://webcast.ucdavis.edu/llnd/3f291bc5

My son is still thinking on things; no decision as of yet! Best wishes to you, as you make your decision!
