S has the best overall sport program in the country

Their cafe food are great too. We ate lunch there once in the new student week. There are so much variaty of food and it is all you can eat and drink, I can't image anyone who would not gain 10 - 15 lb in the first year.

The laundry is free and they even have a web site telling you which machine is idel now.

The Caltrain from Palo Alto to SF is so easy so fast. They also provide bus to maintain view to do basic shopping. If you are loaded with $$, the mall there have all the expensive shops.

Oh, the weather. what can you say about the weather. We took a trip driving alone 84 over the mountain - breath takingly beautiful. Then all those beaches alone route 1.

A little longer drive gets you into the wine country. Grab a glass of your favorite wine and looking over the vally around sunset.

I can see why so many California people want to get into S. I totally agree with you, 离共产主义天堂不远啊.
