Physically the entire place is completely flat: ideal for biking, which is a fun physical activity and saves a lot of money (in comparison to cars which need a lot of gas). Along with recycle bins and the idea of composting, Davis sets a great example for the rest of the world in that it promotes sustainable living and a friendly envrionment.

UC Davis is a true college town. The entire community around has come into to being as a result of UC Davis. Bikes are as common as students, and the infrastructure is clearly represents that. Davis has it all. Being a large school, everyone can find their niche and place as soon as they arrive. But being the largest campus in the UC system, it is never crowded. There is always a place to find your own place at UC Davis.

It is a small, college town. Very cozy, yet we still have a big city feel 10 minutes away (Sacramento).

Really, it came down to the faculity I would be exposed to. I am primarily interested in conservation of fish and one of the leaders in California teaches at the University of California Davis. I spoke with Dr. Peter Moyle before applying to schools and he was very genuine and continues to be even after I have started attending the school. I have since taken his class and started working for him and do not regret my decision to become a part of the UC Davis campus. I was concerned with the size of the porgram aswell. Small is good.

Katie

It has a very good reputation, is located close to the bay area where my parent's live, and it is in a very small town.

Sarah

I prefer San Francisco State on a personal level because of the activism and political involvement at the crux of the university, whereas UC Davis is politically apathetic and career-oriented.
