情係加州 (三)-加州部分大學拾零

(2007-08-06 20:40:51) 下一個
今年女兒想去看她感興趣的學校,所以玩和看校園一起來。女兒初中時想去東部,初中畢業那年去了哈佛,耶魯,MIT,和普林斯頓。高中後她又想去加州上學,說去東部離家太遠會feel home sick。我本有個5月去Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ培訓的機會,機票都定好了,而且是non-refundable。一個同事看到7月在Cal-Poly有一樣的training,告訴我和頭去Rutgers University, New Brunswick和Cal-Poly是一個是地獄,一個是天堂。頭馬上決定讓我去Cal-Poly,在一年內再找機會用機票。女兒對加州中南部充滿了向往,並要她的一好朋友同行。

學校概況:

Hottest Mega-University

Coming from a small Roman Catholic high school, Joe Iniguez found the 37,000-student UCLA campus was just what he wanted. "I wanted to experience something bigger," he says. Some students, of course, find the university daunting, but the opportunities are so vast and the undergrads so smart (the freshman class had an average GPA of 4.3) that most find their niche. With degrees in 120 majors, hundreds of undergrads do publishable research with senior faculty.

在Cal Poly 培訓時,一天午餐我自己去一個店“Market",看到各種快餐,想到出門吃得不健康,就打算吃色拉,價錢是大概4毛一盎司。我自己乘了一碗,加好dressing,casher一稱,要6刀多,可巧我的cash隻用5刀多。我趕緊拿卡,casher說算了,我要寫支票,casher說不用了,搞得我好尷尬。
