Why isn't Cal Poly San Luis Obispo higher ranked?

<p>i always called cal poly, “Cal Poly S-L-O”. i don’t like the sound of SLO as one syllable. haha.
Cal Poly’s engineering>UCSD’s engineering
I believe UCSD is overrated. i’m not saying it is a bad school at all. it IS a great school.
Just my opinion…</p>

<p>I’ve heard it called “Caly Poly S-L-O” as well. On the other hand, my D’s friend who goes there just calls it “SLO” - one syllable.</p>

<p>A lot of people just call it** Poly**</p>

<p>use google to look up what happened when Michael Pollan was scheduled to speak on campus earlier this year. A school that doesn’t respect the ability to have open and unfettered discussions on campus isn’t going to get much respect in return…</p>

<p>Agreed. UCSD is definitely the more prestigious school, period.</p>
