On my visit back to Berkeley for my college 20 year reunion, I had a chance to stroll around campus and the streets of Berkeley to see the recent changes to the storefronts and campus buildings. The Nobel Laureate parking spaces have moved to just opposite Evans Hall, and as a note to non-CAL grads, winning a Nobel Prize is one of the only ways which one can obtain an on campus parking space at Berkeley. The view from the Campanile was gorgeous on the sunny October day. Telegraph Ave has changed a lot, but it still has a quirky offbeat feel. |
