So I take it it's ok to just wander around the Berkeley and Stanford campuses?
Some quick googling tells me the apple/google/etc campuses are, understandably, not open for visitors. Is that correct?
- gojomo 16y agoWalking around the Berkeley/Stanford campuses, absolutely OK. You can wander many of the buildings, too. The campuses are very large and very open, and people of all ages and origins are already there, so it's hard to stick out. Office campuses are likely to shoo you away at the main visitor lobby or other entrances as a distraction they're not equipped to handle. Still, there might be some thrill to seeing the buildings/signage, as plain as they often are, from the street. Apple's on-campus employee store is open to the public: http://www.apple.com/companystore/ http://www.apple.com/companystore/ Google hosts a lot of events in parts of their campus, but finding one at just the right time is unlikely, and poking around unannounced without a staff host isn't likely to be smiled upon.
