<p>“many of the UC students (to me) don’t really have any substance to them”</p>
<p>COUREUR:</p>
<p>hmm, I’m apologize for that statement… it’s just my parents lack of reasoning has led me from looking in the good of the CSU to the bad in the UC (whether it be true or not).
CSU’s that i have been looking into are CSULA, CSUN, CSULB, SFSU, SDSU, and Cal Poly Pomona… i don’t exactly know what i want my major to be… but something along the lines of history or political science… maybe philosophy… something i could use in social advocacy. </p>

<p>Thanks for the advice… i have tried, your suggestion by the way… actually thats how initially started my “Case for the CSU system”. Didn’t work out so well : ( but i suppose thats because maybe i lacked good evidence, about how a CSU would be better for me.</p>
<p>ELLEMENOPE:</p>
<p>i’ll try and lay off the UC bashing, thanks for keeping me in line…</p>
<p>CALMOM:</p>
<p>THANKS! that was some really useful information!! and i guess i could keep my mind still open for UC’s… but i believe that my problem will be similar to your sons. I have visited some UC’s as well as some CSUs and i just enjoy the feel more… social activism was just so much more vivid on the campus’s of the CSU’s i’ve visited (though this might have to do with timing…) when i went to UC, and spoke to students… all the talked about was how fun “ackerman hall” was… and how great the parties at "isla vista " was. haha… i really didn’t care for all that nonsense… but when i went to CSULA, the students spoke about how they went to sacramento to lobby for dream act and when i went to to san fran i listened to students talk about how they went canvasing for hunger action… it was just so amazing!! and got me so stoked!!</p>
<p>COMRADED:</p>
<p>once again sorry for that comment on the UC students.</p>
<p>LIEK0806:</p>
<p>right, i probably should have looked into that… and i think i am going to… CSUmentor just says that it educates 80 or so percent of the social advocates in cali, but doesn’t actually give the exposition behind it… and if i killed my application, i’d feel guilty for spending my parents money, and i think that they would think i was a complete and utter failure…</p>
<p>QIALAH:</p>
<p>hmm i really hadn’t thought of it like that, but thats a great idea! i’ll get to the exact logic of my parents wanting me to goto a UC over a CSU tonight and get back to you…!</p>
<p>KAYF:</p>
<p>oh no, i would have my own apartment… i like the isolation, but i would also have the option to hang with friends every now n then too… it’s hard to explain…</p>
