If you're up by point grey it's almost not worth it to go downtown. Kits has enough and it's not worth the time it takes to get there by bus.
Last time I was up at UBC though I almost didn't recognize it for how desolate and antiseptic it felt. Like a hollywood idea of an advanced campus.
UBC is also now having trouble finding and retaining staff. It's impacting the prestige of the university and the quality of education the students receive.
