8/24    So, any UCLA students know a good place to meet UCLA coeds?
        \_  WWIII and vodka
        \_ forget UCLA girls. just go to the bars/clubs.
           \_ I'd rather meet college students, but name a good bar/club
              where one can meet coeds. I don't want to meet 19 year old
              single moms from El Monte.
        \_ oh yeah, kchang and ilyas are hooked in with all the babes
           \_ The question can be asked: "Where do UCLA students hang out?"
                \_ the Bruin walk is a nice place to socialize. But really
                   the best way is to participate in activities from the
                   Wooden Center, where you can play golf for $15 and wind
                   surf for $20 or take swing dance for only $17 per quarter
                   (each quarter is 10 weeks). Activities are highly
                   subsidized by UCLA and they're really really cheap and
                   usually has a few pretty chicks. If you want to do hard
                   core sciences and enjoy staying in the computer lab 24x7,
                   MIT/Caltech/Cal is a great place to go to. But if you want
                   a well balanced life, UCLA is it       -happy ucla student
                   \_ yeah, I'm sure the 25K+ students at Cal who are not
                      doing "hard core sciences" all stay in the computer
                      lab 24x7.
                      \_ Agreed.  Most of the non-CS students I knew at Cal
                         spent the majority of their time getting laid.
                         This may explain Bitter Berkeley CS Student Sydrome.
                         \_ It's okay, because although some of them got
                            JDs and MBAs and are now running your company,
                            most of them are flipping burgers.
                         \_ this is so fucking arrogant.  Do you know
                            anything about Chemical/Mechnical Engineering?
                            Have you taken any of music theory/harmony/
                            counterpoint classes?  There are plenty of
                            demanding courses/majors on campus.
                            \_ Yeah, but we all know the ChemE people were
                               having mass orgies during "FORTRAN labs".
                         \_ It's all about the GPA. If you are willing to
                            settle for C's, you can find the free time to
                            date plenty of hotties. And my time at Cal
                            was more productive than any other.
              \_ Face down. In the gutter.
        \_ LA?

8/3     Berkeley now ranks 70, while UCLA ranks 50. Williams College
        is #1.

        \_ Forbes hates public education. A less ideologically biased ranking
           has Berkeley at 22 (which is still a fall from the golden years):

        UCLA is ranked above Berkeley. UCSD is ranked above
        Berkeley. Irvine is ranked one below Berkeley.
        Berkeley has seriously gone done in the past
        two decades. I'm not surprised.
        \_ These aren't "best schools" these are "best value" rankings.

9/26    Cal vs. Oregon:  Were you surprised? </sarcasm>
        \_ I was not surprised the Oregon scored 42 points. I was surprised
        \_ I was not surprised that Oregon scored 42 points. I was surprised
           that Cal only scored 3.
        \_ Not surprised they lost. Surprised at what a thorough ass-kicking it
           was on both sides of the ball. Cal couldn't even put up a TD.

9/23    I'm in grad school part time, and the professor I was trying to get
        to advise me just sent me "What you suggest (remote, part-time, topic
        formulation) doesn't fit my advising style..."  Does anyone know
        what "topic formulation" might mean in this context?  I come with
        funding from work, but the topics I can choose are somewhat limited.
        Could be a reference to that...

2/8     Why does UC suck so hard? I did undergrad at UCB and I hated it.
        Professors couldn't teach, class workload was high, and the system
        was designed to "weed out" students and demoralize them rather
        than teach and encourage them. I always got lower grades than I
        deserved for the amount of work I put in. I don't know if this was
        because of the curve which insists that 50% of students should get
