My mom went to Mercy High and her best friends went to ICA and one of my mom's friends from ICA whom my mom said was wild & crazy, entered the Carmelite Monastery at Cristo Rey in San Francisco. My mother and some friends went to visit this girl and they were allowed in for a visit, but could only speak to the novice carmelite through a screen and iron grilles. My mom said they were not allowed to see her face. The visit was only 15 minutes. My momn said they are only allowed out of the monastery to seek medical attention. Most of their entire day is devoted to prayer,

Nicknamed "EMB" by skateboarders.
Famous former skateboarding "Mecca" popular in the late 80s to mid 90s featured in many skateboard videos before the city demolished various ledges and concrete structures. Skaters from around the world would travel to EMB just to skate there. Brick surface of the plaza gave a very distinctive "click-clacking" sound given off by skateboard wheels.
Some famous skateboarders that frequented EMB:
Mike Carroll and brother Greg
Mark Gonzales - "The Gonz Gap" was named after him after he was the first to ollie the very large gap that also featured a big drop. Gap has since been demolished.
Henry Sanchez
James Kelch - aka "The Mayor of EMB"

It's hardly Russian. It's only got a hand full of Russian shops. That's like saying 3 stores in a row make up Korea Town or something.

I assume the previous poster meant teach, not "team." It is true, however, that the building did house the overflow from DLI in Monterey.
Golf Company consisted of the German and Russian students while Hotel Company was made up of Spanish and Korean students. After giving the building to the Dept of Defense (around 1984 I believe)the city of San Francisco and the state of California decided a couple of years later that they wanted it back - ostensibly to turn it into an AIDS clinic. After a dog-and-pony show put on by Senator Pete Wilson and then mayor Diane Feinstein they succeeded. The building was handed back over and once the two professional politicians had divided the political capital gained they apparently forgot about the building and their constituents.
Of interest to some: A Korean student once broke down from the stress of study and, shouting "I am not an adverb!" as his name meant in Korean, leapt from the sixth floor. I never heard if he was okay or not.
