The campus is for the most part safe. I say “for the most part” because safety is only found with good judgement. For example, you’ll probably run into trouble if you walk down a dark alley alone during the middle of the night, but that is true anywhere. If you’re smart about what you do, you should be fine. Also, no, the winters are not unbearable. I know someone from the Bay area, and she’s doing fine here. You just need to get used to the winters. Maybe even try to have a liitle humor with the situation. (For example, my friend from the Bay area took a few of us out for ice cream on her birthday. After we had our treats, we went over to the Diag to have our snacks. Her birthday was at the end of January, and it was freezing. Needless to say, we weren’t out there for a long time, but she was planning on doing that for a while. :))
