Campus Eats

A combination of more than 50 dining halls, restaurants, cafes, and convenience stores on campus mean a pick-me-up is never far away. 

Satisfy hunger with all-you-can-eat options at dining halls, or grab a coffee and snack between classes. 

Alcatraz island

Alcatraz

A prison-turned-national park is an unlikely story, but “The Rock” has become the subject of movies and popular imagination. 

The island, and the scenic cruise to get there, provide truly unique views of the Bay and a slice of local history.

Golden Gate Bridge

Named for the Golden Gate Strait where the Pacific Ocean meets the San Francisco Bay, a visit to this icon is a must. 

You might get sun, wind or fog—or all three at once—any of which make for an authentic SF experience.
