Eagle Rock and Highland Park are really eclectic neighborhoods, a lot of indigenous L.A. culture to explore there.[/quote]

The pres got out of there the first chance he could.  See also Crazy U.[/quote]

Yeah, I know all about that.  I was graduated from there.  But we all call it [b]"Oxy". [/b] Why are you saying don't call it "Oxy"?[/quote]

I went to Oxy.  I would never send my kids there now.  Someone didn't do their homework.  Just google all the problems it has had over the last decade as well as this choice  tidbit yesterday. http://thepunditpress.com/2015/03/29/liberal-professor-if-you-understand-economics-you-are-likely-to-be-a-bad-person/.  The faculty run the place.  The President is useless.  The Board has been chastised by the alums for letting the tenured faculty run the place.  The rape culture madness has taken over the entire campus.  The endowment was destroyed during the 80s Orange County real estate crush while Pomona's surged ahead and most of the alums I know have stopped giving anything to the school - the endowment is literally a fraction of its former competitor: Pomona.  The neighborhood is definitely eclectic but not safe.  The school is, however, good at marketing, but definitely not worth the money and all your child will get is disjointed very liberal artsy classes like "this history of the phallus in literature".  Not . . worth . . the . . money.  Especially if you are tacking on flight and travel costs from the east coast.[/quote]
