We have a rising senior at UCB. Campus is pretty safe and dare I say picturesque. The view from Sather Tower of the GG bridge and Bay area rivals any real estate. UCLA Day is magical. The band comes out (oh men in capes, like Supermen)…arches of blue and yellow baloons, photos with the mother bruin. Meet and greet Jose and Josefina…Royce Hall…Starbucks adjacent to campus…Let’s just agree they are both tough to beat. Both have worldwide status of academic bastions. Both have unheard of number of applicants. You can’t go wrong with either!
