"UCSC, with its college system, really does combine the advantages of a small liberal arts college with those of a large research university. Departments consist of dozens of professors in any given field, as in a large research university, but student interaction with these professors is easy and welcomed, which would be unusual even in a much smaller college. Combine that with the most gorgeous campus in America, and close-enough proximity to San Francisco and the Bay Area, and you have an unbeatable combination.
I loved it when I got my undergraduate degree there, and now my son loves it just as much, if not more!"
