I thought I’d share a few photos of the University Campus – very near my office window. This is where I taught for 8 years and where I have returned to teach this semester. The University of San Diego is situated on a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Mission Bay. Its very pretty and the buildings are all designed in the same style. No ivy covered walls here. I used to live down the street from Harvard and I think I prefer that look – but it is very beautiful here and nicely landscaped. The above photo is the view I have as I walk toward my office. The building at the very back is the Studio Theater and it also functions as a classroom space.
Where I teach
This is one of the many archways running between classroom buildings. I think it is especially lovely.
One of the many stone benches scattered thoughout the courtyard.
The Studio Theater – this theater is for the MFA student productions. They also perform on the stages of The Old Globe which is in another part of town.
A view down the main road of the University.
There’s more to the campus, of course, but this is my little area. This is where I spend most of my time during the week. But only for 3 more weeks. Then classes end, and everything moves over to The Old Globe and the Summer Rep. Hope you liked our little visit to campus!

I have taught for a couple of university several years ago– but none of the campuses looked like that. Looks like a history of learning at your feet.

Oh my ! what a beautiful place. You are very lucky to work in such surroundings with palms and sun. I know the weather in California is always warm and sunny, but don’t you regret the four seasons of the East coast ? or not ?

What a gorgeous campus, Claudia! How wonderful to be surrounded by beauty, even while at work! You mentioned living down the street from Harvard. My daughter lived on the Lesley campus next to Harvard up until last year when she graduated from college. I absolutely love Cambridge… Donna @ An Enchanted Cottage
