UCR and the YSA church activity in Riverside county is solid

DJROSS

How about UCI? Solid YSA ward in Newport and is a good school.

Yeah, if she can get it, this would prob be the best.

I agree. But even UCI has issues.

I believe that Cal State Long Beach has the most institute classes in the state.

Between Long Beach and Huntington there are 18 institute classes offered

The church needs to market Institute better.

UC Davis kids are great.
