Santa Clara University

For those of you not from the Bay Area, probably haven't hear a lot about SCU - but have seen a surprising number of people in BB and even off to the buyside/VC from Santa Clara. 

Affluent community, beautiful campus, well connected parents and alumni are probably driving it. I'm from the area but went to a semi-target elsewhere, honestly going to SCU would not have been a bad call as an alternative.
