Stanford
Today I went to see how they do great (and expensive) universities here... they have 'old' buildings but they are newer that 3rd court....
Anyway some thought on Stanford:
(i) It's as much in San Fran as Cambridge is in King's Cross
(ii) It takes as long to walk across the campus as it does to walk from Christ's to the Cav...
If you think tutition fees are bad in the uk it costs $43,000 per year here...

This is the university chapel (event though in it's constitution it says it is not secular)
Not really Great St Mary's but you still get notes fixed on your bike if you leave it in the wrong place (below)

Anyway there ends an excellent week in California, I'm flying to Vancouver tomorrow lunch time.
Emails are invited as it is nice to here from people, and good to know there are more than 3 who read this!!
