<p>No i disagree this isn't just for fun there is something inside each student body that makes them go against each other. It CAN'T BE JUST FOR FUN thats impossible. If it was just for fun would there be this many posts???!?????</p>
<p>For one, I see a lot of non Berkeley and non Stanfurd students on this thread starting flames. You have to take this thread with a grain of salt.</p>
<p>For those of you who are Stanford Rejects and still try to defend Stanford by bashing Cal......read this .....</p>
<p>Dude. <a href="http://www.stanfordrejects.com%5B/url%5D">www.stanfordrejects.com</a></p>
<p>Still no StanFURdium! =P Man I love wearing that shirt... especially when I go visit my friends at StanFUrd</p>
<p>Screw Stanford and screw Berkeley.</p>
<p>Honestly, how can you call a school with clay tiles on the roof a real university?</p>
<p>(East Coast snob for life)</p>
<p><em>laugh</em> East coast. <em>laugh</em> Maybe thats how architecture in California is? Mediterranean style? And the stupid red bricks in your schools are better? <em>COUGh</em>HARVARD<em>COUGH</em>. Yea yea whatever. I've been to Philadelphia. That's just a old-skool town that poses as Boston but obviously doesn't have enough diversity there. nor cal pwns j00</p>
<p>hahaha..dont even compare harvard architecture with stanford architecture....make a poll on this board asking CCers which campus they like better...EVERY single person I've met that has visited stanford absolutely LOVED the campus...i haven't met too many people that have visited Harvard as i live on the west coast...but the stanford campus is famous for its beauty....from students to magazines...all rave about Stanford's architectural beauty. </p>
<p>and comparing this spanish architecture to the East coast goth??
ummmmm.....no.</p>
<p>I like gothic architecture.</p>
<p>I personally don't think harvard's campus is very attractive.</p>
<p>Yale's collegiate gothic and Columbia's neoclassical are both spectacular.</p>
<p>I've never been to Harvard, but I've heard of people being disappointed with it because they expected some sort of beautiful intellectual haven.</p>
<p>i dont mean gothic architecture altogether...i mean gothic architecture is beautiful but particularly harvard's architecture...I have heard raves about stanford architecture that I haven't heard about Harvard's. sorry fir the misunderstanding. </p>
<p>Anyways, this is already a ridiculous enough thread comparing stanford and cal....why the heck are you making it worse by bringing in other schools?? I don't see a point to this thread at all...how is this opst helping any of us? its pretty much back and forth arguing...thats it...not useful information. "I like berkeley" "I like stanford" I hate stanford" "I hate berkeley" "Stanford is full of rich snobs" "berkeley is full of hard core competitive hashers" </p>
<p>COMMON! get over it...this is not helping anybody who might be looking to apply to these two schools or attend one of them. it is pretty much like 8-9 ppls opinion repeated over and over again and them arguing over it. please..get over ur immaturity...and kill this thread.</p>
<p>StanFUrd has beautiful architecture. Honestly, I love the campus. I still go visit once in a while, and I plan on going there this weekend for photography. Ever go biking around there? It's just friggn awesome. I wished I went earlier though cuz the grass is now turning yellow, and it's UGLY when its all yellow when you drive along 280 =(.</p>
<p>StanFUrd is filled with rich ppl, but it's not like Berkeley doesn't have rich people. A bunch of StanFUrd rejects (like me) go there who are also rich, etc etc... But you know what I'm not a sore loser who said omfg stanfurd didn't accept me. I didn't care (probably cuz I was happy with UCLA at that point). I still remember pulling the letter from my mailbox and then taking a crap and opening the letter on my toilet seat. I was like "ohh.. well i expected that" and I went to nap. Woke up at 7:30 PM. I was 15 min late to check the Berkeley admissions. Yes this was last year when they did the online thing at 7 PM, and 7:15 PM and 7:30 PM (division by last name). Hahaha.</p>
<p>I'm sorry but Stanfurd's Hoover Institution is like the Neo-Con haven of America. It is no wonder THES London Times ranked Berkeley higher than Stanfurd.</p>
<p>Stanford is a better school, period. It's harder to get in to and better students end up getting in, at least from the pool of acceptees from my school. Higher SATs, SAT IIs, GPAs, EC's...you name it. Stanford is just out of Berkeley's league. I mean, sure, you can compare departments against departments but Stanford is better overall.</p>
<p>Of course Stanford is better. But that's so obvious it isn't worth arguing about. </p>
<p>It's like comparing Berkeley to UC Riverside. Who's gonna argue that one?</p>
<p>But after you graduate, Stanfurd Asians can't really break any ceilings. Their biggest accomplishment is being Mayasoshi Son's 5th concubine. And yes, Jerry Yang was an underrated Concubine. He should get alimony at least. </p>
<p>Fact is that Stanfurd Asians are mentally weak and cannot achieve the greatest accomplishments of Berkeley Asians. Being the richest Asian man in the history of the world is something that is possible only for Berkeley Asians.</p>
<p>stanford isn't better, obviously you guys didn't read that article i poster.......</p>
<p>Well, like I said, Stanford is so obviously better than Berkeley that it would be pointless for me to state it. It's like having to explain to somebody that 1 + 1 is equal to 2. Of course we know it is true, so why bother?</p>
<p>Anyway, I look forward to reading your resumes in four years. Till then guys.</p>
<p>Why, why why, Rooster? Why must you troll so much? Great, we get that you like your school and think its better than Cal. Awesome. Now go away. We know the farm is boring, but that doesn't mean you need to hang out on the Cal board all the time. Go on the Stanfurd board and you and your buddies can continue to give each other reach arounds while talking about the magical place that is Palo Alto.</p>
<p>if rooster wasnt here...who'd be here to defend stanford? after all, this is a stanford vs. berkeley..i mean unless you wanted this thread to be just about bashing stanford and making cal look better and didnt want anybody to refute...you might as well have called the thread "Bash Stanford thread" if there is gonna be a debate such as the thread suggests...you need to hear from both sides...unless of course, you're afraid that you wont be able to refute rooster? </p>
<p>oh yea, btw...throughout this whole thread you guys keep referring to that one article and the THES rankings to make Cal look better? don't you have anything new to fight back with?</p>
