I don't think my school is necessarily known for anything; but its very beautiful, built on a nature reserve I think. The dorm I lived in was very nice too, had a great view of LA(Los Angeles). Maybe diversity now that I think about it; there are a lot of different ethnicities and activities for everyone to participate in.
