On the other hand, the rain, and lack of an NHL hockey team can get you down.

I can't compare UBC to the universities out east, but i definitley concur with the idea that UBC has no school spirit....whatsoever.
The main selling point for UBC is the city itself. It's too bad that living expenses in Vancouver are beyond stupid now...then again i'm a student so what do i know.
