I love homecoming every year where there is a tailgate with great food and alumni. The homecoming football game is a lit of fun as well. Also, the basketball games against San Diego State and Gonzaga every year are great because the whole school comes out for these games which makes the atmosphere awesome! Also, the Alcala Bazaar is a great tradition where at the beginning of each semester all the clubs and organizations set up booths all around campus to try and recruit new members. It is a great way to see the diversity of the USD community.

I think the thing that the University of San Diego is best known for would have to be the beautiful campus, the great weather that San Diego gets year-round, and the sense of community that is felt on campus. Everyone at the University of San Diego is dedicated to help you no matter what their title at the school may be. Accademically however, I think we are best known for our law school and business school.
