<p>Best: The surrounding city, Unitrans, eggheads, etc

<p>i'll bump this thread to get so more thoughts...</p>
<p>Best: college town environment</p>
<p>Notable honors: </p>

Rafting out in the American River, about 30 minutes away from school</p>
<p>Worst: deadly hellish temps during the summer</p>
<p>a lot of people r rude?/ reallie? how so?</p>
<p>Is Target really coming to Davis? Daviswiki didn't really tell me anything about the results...</p>
<p>There's a Super Wal-Mart in Dixon, about 10 miles away. I've been to it a few months ago. Since it's a Super Wal-Mart, it's both a general supply store and a grocery store in one.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.daviswiki.org/Wal-Mart%5B/url%5D">http://www.daviswiki.org/Wal-Mart</a></p>
<p>musingmiyu: Yes, Target is coming.</p>
<p>BEST: School spirit, proximity to virtually everything (shopping at arden fair, snowboarding in tahoe, rafting on the american, chillin in berkeley/san francisco)</p>
<p>WORST: Look, people aren't exaggerating when they say it gets hot over summer!</p>

<p>I think I would enjoy the bike-friendly environment the most because I’m a biker. I wish I get in, all of these things sound very nice.</p>
<p>wow it’s a 4 year old post… but to clear things up…</p>
<p>-Davis has a target and you can go to target on the weekends through the Davis tram which takes you to straight to Target and back.
-There are Borders, Pink Berry, Ben&Jerrys, Jamba Juice right next to the campus.
-Bike is essential and love the fact that Davis is very bike friendly ( Only UCSB and UC Davis are really “bike friendly”)
-It does get extremely hot during the summer, but schools out anyways. (Unless you do internships etc etc)
-School spirit is still amazing and it is the best in the nation + 23 Division 1 Sports.
-ARC center has almost everything imaginable.</p>
<p>let’s revive this thread, lol! i’m transferring here in the fall and am also curious about the “best” and “worse” things about my new school. :3</p>
<p>Coming from Marin/SF, the worst is “location.” And the thing is that it’s not a bad location. Sacramento is quite a charming/tree filled city-town. But, nothing compares to San Francisco. So, my only concern about Davis is moving there and leaving the life (friends, house, general SF lifestyle) I have here in San Francisco. Very stressful situation…</p>
<p>Best things:
-The "chill"ness, so to speak. I came to UCD from a very competitive and neurotic high school environment, so attending school where the atmosphere encourages/is conducive to academic success but still has the laidback feel was a breath of fresh air for me.
-The people. Everyone in UCD is so helpful and at any given moment, I feel like I can ask a random stranger for help/directions etc. The students and professors alike are very friendly and sincerely love what they do. This is evident in Picnic Day (the largest student-run event in the United States), the ASUCD Coffee House restaurant (the largest student-run restaurant in the United States), and even just stopping by a professor’s office hours to hear what they have to say. Some of my best friends are the other people who lived on my dorm floor freshman year, and I can definitely see myself being friends with them for years to come. :)</p>
<p>Worst thing:
-Allergies. There’s a price to pay for having a gorgeous Arboretum with over 22,000 plant species from around the world…haha</p>
<p>Worst thing: Many of its students are UCLA and/or Berkeley rejects!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Meh. Many UCLA/Berkeley students are Stanford/CIT rejects. Many UCR/UCM students are UC Davis rejects. Maybe community college students are UC/CSU rejects. It’s all relative, and what matters is that people aren’t bitter over their rejection (which is more common at the top tier UCs, or so I’ve heard.) And Davis is pretty damn prestigious to be considered a “reject school” as you’re implying.</p>
<p>I think he was joking.</p>
<p>And there are plenty of Stanford/CIT rejects at Davis as well.</p>
<p>I visited davis recently…i would say i wish the campus were in a more urban location like Cal, but I love vibe of the campus. It’s very big, but LOTS to see/do without leaving the campus itself!! i’ve yet to check out the downtown area but i’ve heard it’s quite charming as well.=)</p>
<p>“I visited davis recently…i would say i wish the campus were in a more urban location like Cal”</p>
<p>Wouldn’t be the same. Nothing like it.</p>
<p>lol I’ve never heard Fairfield mall called a giant mall before. HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA</p>
<p>HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHHAHa</p>
<p>omg. hhahahahahahahahhahahahaahahahhahahahahahaha</p>
<p>sorry that was just funny</p>
