At least half of them do not teach what they expect you to know. Lectures are just stale PowerPoint presentations that will not even work as a reference for programming assignments. In fact, the textbooks don't teach you how to do the very problems that are assigned from said book. Basically, they make the subject matter arbitrarily difficult so that you must teach it to yourself, spend much time with profs/TA after class, or just be a friggin genius. I wasn't the best student by any means but I don't feel my education was taken seriously by many of the tenured staff.There is a strong Greek presence there and a lot of kids driving BMWs from NJ and CT.

There are a lot of rich kids from California that can be snooty, but if you are not rich think about it this way. They may have money, but they go to the same school. Money does not mean a thing because all that money could not get them into a UC school. I really love the diversity and that there is always something interesting going on on the mall (the grassy area in the middle of campus). I highly suggest to find your own community because that will help with study groups, social scence, ect. Whether that be greek life, in your major, a student group, a religious group, or one of the 4 multi-cultural centers. Faculty Accessibility: A, Perceived Campus Safety: B- Have a Question?
