Holidays are just around the corner, which means it's gift giving season! Everyone loves receiving presents, and we here at The Daily Californian have put together a short list of places around Berkeley to assist you in your gift-buying endeavors. Whether you're looking for something more universal or something more personalized, they're all uniquely Berkeley.

We have all been there. You walk out of class with a bad grade, and have tears streaming down your face. It happens to all of us. We here at The Daily Californian have compiled a list of the best places to cry on the UC Berkeley campus for your convenience. They have all been tried and tested, from the middle of Memorial Glade to the depths of Main Stack. Use these as a starting point for all your crying adventures – the options are endless.

It is so easy to get caught up in your frantic studies and lose track of your surroundings. We may hate sitting in UC Berkeley's various libraries as we cram for finals, but we must admit, these buildings have tremendous aesthetic appeal.
