    This summer I have the oppurtunity to spend some time either at the University Of San Fran or the University Of California Berkeley.

    If anyone has either been, or knows a bit about either, which one is nicer and which one has a more "hippy" setting, where I will see some cool things and meet some open minded people. I'm very indecsive so if you have any advice it could help! Thanks :)

    I like the campus at Berkeley, and the area around the campus is yeah, kindda, ok ish.

    Berkeley was the scene of a lot of student political ferment back in the 60's and I think, in certain ways, still retains quite a little bit of that character.

    But so many things have changed. It's just not the same anymore, nor does it still have the same "hippie" vibes as before.
    To be honest, I'm not too fond of the Berkeley, Oakland areas anymore and try to avoid them altogether.

    Every time, I visit Northern Cali, I would much rather head a bit more to the south, towards the Silicon Valley, San Jose areas.

    Anyway, best of luck, I hope you make the right decisions and make the most of your time, either way.
