<p>It really amazes me how terrified people from outside of California are about earthquakes. In truth, it’s not that bad!! Earthquakes are very rare!! All of a sudden you just feel a lovely foot massage. haha.</p>
<p>I really think that location-wise, you’ll have a lot of great opportunities in the San Francisco area. Mayor Gavin Newsom delivered a recent speech about how proud he was of the city’s environmental policy. Does anyone know how the city of Boston compares to San Francisco in terms of environmental public policy?? I bring this up because internships will play a role in your college experience. </p>
<p>In terms of the feel of each of the colleges–and I have friends at both–it seems that Stanford kids are book-smart but less intellectual than Harvard kids. I’m only relaying what I’ve heard from friends at those two schools. Feel free to rebuff…</p>
