California University Fencing

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with university fencing clubs here in California. I'm majoring in civil engineering at this point (community college, transferring for BS), and the two top schools I'm looking at that are listed as having a fencing club are Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and UC Davis. Transferring is still a ways off, but I'm wondering which I should be shooting for, and fencing is a factor (albeit, not my main concern). Just trying to get information at this point.

I was curious if anyone here had experience with California university fencing clubs, particularly either of these two. I'm not necessarily heavily interested in competing, just a good place to fence. Obviously, I'd highly prefer saber, but ultimately education is more important and I'd be willing to pick up another weapon to continue fencing while going to the school of my choice. I used to know the saber coach at Davis, but I believe he is no longer there.

Any insights or experience would be appreciated.
