    I attended UCSC at the beginning of the millennium. I had selected OAKES as my college before even…read morehaving the opportunity to attend the walking tour. I'm so glad that I picked Oakes. I made so many valuable connections while I dormed there in my first year. I remember hearing all the different jokes about Oakes and how the Oakes dorms were the boxes that College 8-10 arrived in. Oakes was definitely underwhelming when you first looked at it. The buildings did look rather old and very much lived in. One of the things that I began to appreciate the most about them was that I'd wake up on any random morning to a view of the most beautiful deer just outside of my window, or fog just hovering above the grass but the view of the ocean absolutely clear and sparkling. I loved what I'd heard about Oakes as I had been able to talk to some other students who had been attending UCSC for a while already. Some of them were able to tell me about their experiences at Oakes and some of them were able to tell me a lot about the back story of the college. I met so many great people at Oakes when I began attending as a student. So many of them were artistic, political, insightful, and welcoming. There were so many things that I loved about Oakes. I don't even know where to begin. I loved the view that I had from my room. There hasn't been one every again ever since then. I was very close to one of the shuttle pick up and drop off points. I was able to easily attending union meetings, the Oakes senate gatherings, writing lab, computer lab, Oakes cafe, etc. I fell in love with the Oakes core class, although I barely passed because my flight back to the Bay Area had been cancelled and it was the last one out on a Sunday night and there was just no way that I was going to make it to the class by 8am. EEEK! There's a certain roll call that we have that is one of a kind, although it is the simplest. "OOOOOOOOOAaaaaaaaaKKKKKKKeeeeeeeSSSSS!" There is a certain kind of slug love that oozes from all us Oakes grads. Man, room 306 in Biko was my spot. My dorm block advisor was Anthoine Bracy. He's an awesome dude. He invited all of us to his place for a pancake breakfast in the middle of the year. That was fun. I met a bunch of other people from our building that day, some that I had classed with and some that I didn't know lived in the same building. It was nice to get together and to just become a little closer knit. I feel like I Oakes, especially Antoine Bracy and Biko House, so much of who I am today. I realized my goals there and realized how much more I wanted to become involved in my Asian American community. I wanted to get more involved with the student orgs even. I didn't think it was really my thing but I loved it once I really got involved. Who knew! I absolutely LOVE Oakes!! I visit each time I'm in town. I look forward to walking through whenever I'm on campus and I always look for our mascot, banana slugs.

    Beautiful area, very close to the arboretum and Wilder Ranch just off campus. The vibes here are…read morebetter than any other college on campus, also very queer dorms. Gotta love Oakes !

    I'm currently attending and should graduate in October. I love this school and it's teachers. Ms…read more Heidi, Ms. Gabby, and Ms. Brenda are fantastic! I already feel like I have the confidence to get a job. The only problem I have had so far was the beginning. It was really unorganized and a lot of us didn't know where we were supposed to go because we never received our schedules, and the teachers didn't have their rosters. Other then that, it's been a smooth ride.

    Every single time LeeAnn R. responds to one of these reviews, it is an ABSOLUTE JOKE. It is so…read moreupsetting to see her continue to respond that she takes these reviews "seriously", so I had to elaborate more. I truly feel she could care less about what is going on at the school as long as she gets her check. She once came to visit my class and it was like she was just spewing lies out of her mouth to make us all think we were in the greatest program EVER - when she left, we all just laughed because we knew it was all rehearsed with all of the awful things we had been experiencing at the school. I am a grown woman in my 40's. I had several meetings with my instructor, the Campus Director AND the Director of the program, and NOTHING changed.. (they also treat some of the instructors horridly behind the scenes and pay them a starting rate of only $35/hour when they could easily be making $50+ in the field - just look at indeed when they post). I also sent numerous emails to everyone I possibly could and nothing ever changed. The school is a JOKE in the community - no self respected medical office or hospital wants to hire graduates from CCC. They can't even give their students adequate "externships" because no one wants students from CCC. Not to mention the sexual tone Edvin P would use about the women in my class and if they were "pretty" or not to him. I had a meeting with him and the Campus Director where he took ZERO accountability (she even said she wished he would have just stayed quiet, as she was so embarrassed with how he handled the meeting). I am embarrassed to say I ever made the decision to attend CCC and ashamed of the worthless debt I accrued. I stick with what I said before ... RUN FAST!!!!!
