Berkeley Beyond CAL

Sick of how when people mention the city of Berkeley everyone only thinks of UC Berkeley? The city has interesting sights and is well-known for its political activism, but it appears that those aspects evolve around UC Berkeley. Maybe you’ve been to the city dozens of time and keep touring UCB despite no longer caring that the university has a reserved parking spot for Nobel Laureates. Or perhaps you’re just not in the mood to visit a college campus and try to walk through crowds of stressed-out undergrads. Well, have no fear – this article will describe what you can do in a day that doesn’t involve setting foot onto campus.

Start the day off right by eating a balanced meal and by being as far away from the campus as you can possibly get without leaving the city. The distant Rick and Ann’s  is an amazing breakfast spot, but usually has a long wait.  Or head in the opposite direction and go to Jimmy Bean’s which offers scrumptious Silver-Dollar Pancakes.

If you decide to go to Jimmy Bean’s you’re roughly near the Berkeley Marina (and by roughly I mean you’ll still have to drive or take the bus) so…why not see the marina?

There you can admire a breath-taking view of the Golden Gate Bridge. This spot is well-known for being a great place to fly a kite, so on a sunny day don’t be surprised if you see the sky filled with brightly colored kites. Continue reading →

No Lectures, Just Leisure

Our intern Babak attends San Francisco State University, and boy does he have a course to recommend to you. Read on to learn more about what is potentially one of the best departments a school can have: the department of Recreation, Parks, and Tourism (Amy Poehler and Aziz Ansari not included).

The Recreation, Parks, and Tourism (RPT) department at San Francisco State University is one of the most laid-back yet unique departments on campus, and the fact that they are still hanging

water rafting, backpacking, and even sailing. In other words, the department features some of the most unique, interesting, and enlightening classes at SFSU, and RPT 420: Leisure and Contemporary Society is no exception.

I stumbled upon this gem of a class under some unfortunate circumstances after being dropped from another term paper help 100% non plagiarized class–one that was much more essential to meet viagra price 100mg my graduation requirements. But boy am I glad I got booted from that class. Simply put, RPT 420: Leisure and Contemporary Society is hands-down the best class I’ve taken at SFSU.

The course explores the importance of leisure and its impact on American culture and society. It’s taught by three different professors, but it’s hard to imagine any of them teaching it better than Robert Flasher, or “Flash” as he goes by. Flash is the reason this class rocks. Flash rocks. He’s laid-back, friendly, funny, enthusiastic about leisure, and often writes silly raps for class (as long as a few students help him with the beat). He teaches this class once a week, once a semester, and that is all the teaching he does. That being said, he clearly has a genuine passion for teaching, and, similar to other professors in the department, his view of teaching doesn’t mean lectures, tests, and essays. By university policy, the class requires a minimum of ten pages of writing, but that is divided into five simple two-page writing assignments. There are no textbooks, no tests, and only about 20 minutes of lecturing per class. The rest of the three-hour class usually consists of videos, activities, and student-led discussions.
