When I tell my friends about my school, I brag about the class sizes and personal attention we get. We have the best of both worlds; lecture classes with the professor that have anywhere from 150-300 students, and a corresponding ?section,? taught by a TA, with 20-40 students. Not only do almost every one of our professors give the lectures, but they establish office hours so that we can get one-on-one time. There is so much help, from professors, TA?s, and peers in section, that it is actually difficult to do poorly.

Santa Cruz is more than I could ever ask for. When my friends ask me what my favorite aspect of attending school at UC Santa Cruz is, a plethora of various characteristics run through my mind. The people are friendly, laid-back, and open minded, but my favorite part about being a student at UC Santa Cruz is the beautiful campus enviorment. I am surrounded by towering green trees, clad with a variety of different plants bordering the beautiful hiking trails, and all of this wonder is amidst a hilltop. I am truly blesssed to attend UC Santa Cruz.

When talking about my school to my friends, I inform them on how multicultural the campus is. The whole campus is split into ten different "colleges", each having its own image. There is something very beautiful and unique about the types of people that attend each college, which makes UC Santa Cruz have a variety of different people. Each college has its own stereotype, which isn't always true for every person, but is true regarding a big percentage of the whole college. It goes from computer geeks at Crown to hippies at Kresge to Asians at College Nine.

I mostly brag about how beautiful it is. You can get lost in the redwoods while walking from one class to the next.

Nothing because there is very little to brag about and/or be proud of.
