| Universities and technical schools in this Evergreen State have more to offer than great programs and professional courses. Home to a buzzing arts scene, jazz musicians, great golfing and the Washington Redskins, downtime options include Segway safaris around DC, shopping at quirky stores in Eastern Market and living history at Jefferson Memorial, the Bridge of Gods or Seattle’s Ballard. Life after school is never dull and adrenalin junkies can try kayaking on the Potomac, kitesurfing in Columbia River Gorge, snowboarding in the Cascade Mountains and top it off with a healing dip at Olympic Mountains hot springs! |
