About Reno: The 255-acre main campus, located minutes from downtown Reno, features both contemporary and historic architecture, and the university?s treelined Quadrangle is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The academic atmosphere is filled with rich surroundings for the cultural and intellectual development of the students. Reno benefits from a comfortable climate; and is bounded on the west by the majestic Sierra Nevada mountain range and on the east by the rolling basin and range province. There are four distinct seasons in this cool, dry climate where the sun shines nearly 290 days a year. The area is noted for its variety of recreational opportunities, which include sailing, camping, hiking, fishing, and sightseeing. Within an hour?s drive of the campus, for example, are Lake Tahoe in the High Sierra; and Pyramid Lake, a unique prehistoric desert sea; and a number of nationally known ski areas, including Squaw Valley, the site of the 1960 Winter Olympic
s. Reno is within 2 hours' drive from Sacramento and 3.5 hours' drive from San Francisco. (Courtesy:http://www.cse.unr.edu/).
