Delta Zeta, Tri Delta, Delta Gamma, Alpha Phi, Gamma Phi Beta and Alpha Omicron Pi have all been at CSULB continously since they chartered in the late 50's to mid 60's. Sigma Kappa returned to campus about 1987. A lot of the fraternities have come and gone but overall, they have a pretty solid greek system!

CSULB really took off in terms of student population in the mid 70s. It's a beautiful campus with lots of blooming cherry trees, fountains, some outdoor art that is funky and open to interpretation...and an ocean view from some parts of the upper campus!

CSULB was recently noted by Princeton Review as one of the top three "best bang for your buck" universities nationwide. Some of the notable alums include Denise Austin, Richard and Karen Carpenter, Mark OMeara, Linda Dano and...my personal favorite, Steve Martin!

Don't forget the mile hike up to campus from the far-away parking lots.

When it comes to ocean view, I still think no campus can match Pepperdine!

It is nice up there, Peppy, but how about the views from Point Loma Nazarene University?

No greek life, but good surfing and a good jazz band. Or so I hear.

Yeah, Point Loma Nazarene does have a pretty good beach view. The softball field was quite scary as it was pretty much on the edge of the cliff, but the view was gorgeous. I was in a wedding that was held there a long time ago, and I remember the sunset was so beautiful.

It does look nice. It reminds me a little of Pepp, but the scenery is a little different. I appreciated that at Pepp, most of the dorm rooms had 180 degree views of the ocean.
