I studied for a time at berkeley. they say it's the #1 graduate institution in the US. It was just a fabulous experience. I hope someday to go back.
Best decision of my life to go here. I got a fantastic education at a reasonable price & made lifelong friends. Almost everyone you meet here is impressive, going places or doing something meaningful with their lives. If you are a nerd at heart, feel like other people don't get you, love to read, or build things, or to think deeply about ideas, these are your people. Leave your ego at the door and be open to joining extracurriculars, and you will have an amazing experience like I did. BS '13
At the Ben Shapiro event last night it was hostile and it felt unsafe with all the people wearing masks in the evening. I've been all over and never felt so at risk as I do when I see people hiding their face. Masks are for skiing, and robbers.
Proud of being a golden bear! Best years in my life!
Scary, unsafe campus. Feel that this campus should shut down due to the explosive, hateful, unruly thugs who are injuring students and running this campus. NO parent who loves their child would even consider this campus or education were such extensive violence is allowed without any prosecution. Pull your child out of here!!
Rejection of alternative ideas and places feelings before facts.
Here too I arrived with my friend Alain. It can be said that one evening in August we were lying on the university lawn
I've been to this campus many times. It's beautiful, and the education is great... minus one thing; the predisposed dispositions of the faculty and student body. Most are radicalized leftists who don't understand economic basics or social constructs. First letting men into women's bathrooms, safe spaces for student who need to learn the tough lessons of life, burning flags, and now, the racist, physical violence being taken by faculty, staff, and students on campus. What a horrible place.
If you know any staff in admission office, you are easy to get in.( Even if you have very low GPA and lied on transcript). However, those sneaky dumb could easily get bachelor degree here.
The campus is very quiet and there are not many tourists, but the food street outside the campus shows a completely different look, noisy, cluttered, and poor public security.
My friends told me to pay special attention to money when receiving it from outside. The public security is not very good.
I graduated in '76 with a degree in Applied Math. Great experience. Berkeley has very high academic standards. They don't coddle students but do teach you to think and solve problems. During my professional career, the academic pedigree of an applicant for a job was very important. Berkeley is at the top of the list. You know what you are getting; a prepared, driven individual. The campus is beautiful and only a Bart ride to the City (San Francisco). You can even see the Golden Gate from the entrance to the Math building
Hopefully I can study on this campus very seriously to get a master of arts degree on this campus. Thank you
I wouldn t mind the nasty comments that are clearly left by salty conservatives. The campus is beautiful. The academics/professors are some of the nations best. Enough said. Go bears!
Hopefully I can go to school on this campus and meet milla jovovich
In 1964, Berkeley students marched for free speech. In 2017, they protest against it. This is the least democratic and the least free place in the entire United States.
This is not about right vs left, liberal vs conservative, or republican vs democrat. This is about love vs hate. It's about tolerance vs bigotry. There is a huge difference between personal belief and holding others to your own standards. Obviously there are people all around us everyday who believe things differently than ourselves. However, belittling, berating, and especially physical violence, are not solutions and only worsen the condition of humanity and kill any hope that we can live together in peace, despite our differences. The Berkeley school body is an embarrassment with the way they have acted towards others and instead of imposing your ideologies through hate and force, try loving eachother. It actually works!
I enjoyed visiting this campus. I've been here twice now!
When the young fragile liberal minds finally grow up, they'll be kicking themselves and cursing their professors names.
