<p>It IS The biggest tower in SB as rc pointed out. It surely beats out UCLA's Royce Hall which is just an 'elegant structure' that symbolises the school, my cousin told me (he goes there).</p>
<p>Our tower sticks it's head way up into the sky to claim its superiority. That's why I will never be over it. It rocks.</p>
<p>And yes, you are correct. SB is known for having the hugest, most gi-normous swimming pool ever. THE PACIFIC OCEAN.</p>
<p>BTW rc is it true that Campbell Hall is the largest lecture hall out of all the UC's? That is what I heard from several individuals.</p>
<p>Storke Tower is the tallest building in the tri-counties area.</p>
<p>As far as UCSB and UCI is concerned, I would be very bored at UCI. I'm not a crazy partier, though I do like to have a good time on occasion, and I think that's what the majority of people here are like. The atmosphere is very conducive to partying but also to studying, especially in the residence halls.</p>
<p>As for San Nic-I can only say that San Nic is the ****. I came in Winter quarter last year in San Nic, and I had the best time of my life. I've made a lot of good friends whom I see regularly. At first, I was a bit turned off by being on the Scholar's Hall-it seemed like people were in their rooms more than other floors, which were definitely crazier. But San Nic is such that you can meet people from whatever floor you like, whether it's the Asian Pacific Islander interest floor, the Scholar's, the Women's, or any of the general floors.</p>
<p>It makes me sad too when UCSB gets dissed for its party rep. Yeah, we know how to party, but what school doesn't? We just added a couple Nobels-name any other UC that did that last year. I suspect UCSB will look much stronger by the time new students graduate.</p>
