jucy campus is a joke and should be removed from the internet. I have not been on in a good three months and i dont plan on looking at it ever again. I think it is rediculous that people anonymously can talk shit on each other and other sorority/fraternity houses. we are a greek community and should treat eachother as such.

I HEART UCSB... AND GREEK LIFE

If you're worried about having time to study while also being able to participate in the night life in Isla Vista, think about what type of person you are. Are you independent? Can you do your homework on time or do you procrastinate? Do you drink a lot? Do you smoke? Do you surf? Do you play guitar? Do you swim or play soccer? Whatever the answer may be, there's room for you at UCSB. It might take time to adjust to this out of body experience, but UCSB students are very driven. If I were to put a moto to UCSB, it woudl be "Work hard, play hard" because that's what we do.

i love it here. it is 80 degrees and blue skies and i have yet to meet someone who would not help me with directions or my bike chain falling off. i could not have asked for a better school experience and i honestly never want t leave. i feel it is a honor and a privilege to come to this school and i hope following classes feel the same way i do.

I am on the UCSB club volleyball team and it has changed my college experience. sports were so important to me in high school and i was devastated when senior year was over. club volleyball has filled the void completely. i have an amazing team of 15 girls who i love to death. we have so much fun together, especially when traveling to tournaments. although it is a big commitment, it is great because it does not take as much time as D1 sports do. we practice 3 times a week and have about a 5 month season. we just got back from dallas for nationals and we placed 17th which is great considering it is only our 2nd year! i am also in pi beta phi and it has also really enriched my college experience. i have had the chance to play every sport in other house's philanthropies, do all different types of community service, participate in campus wide events, make lifelong friends, hold leadership positions, and of course dress up for tons of parties! i would definitely recommend rushing as a freshman to see if the greek system is something that you may enjoy.. for a lot of people it really is! i am living in my sorority house for the 2nd year now and it has been such a great experience...something that i could never have anywhere else! oh, another thing, GO ABROAD! you will have the best time of your life!!

Coming to UCSB has been the greatest decision i've ever made. It's easy to feel comfortable here and you get to go to college at the beach. It's a super social school so if you're a bit of a homebody that can be difficult.

A lot of people skip class. I don't suppose that's specific to UCSB, but I really like weeks 3-8 of the quarter because it's never hard to find a seat in class.
