UCSF has a campus in Fresno. Fresno is a small city, but it's in the heart of California's Central Valley, which is very rural. The surrounding area is basically one big farm. A lot of the migrant workers there are from Mexico, so it's a great place to brush up on your Spanish.
I know there's a rural campus affiliated with a school of medicine in Alabama, too. UCSF-Fresno has been chosen along with the Alabama school and about eight others to be inspected and written up so that other schools can start their own rural medical centers. Unfortunately the UCSF web site has frozen up or I'd give you a link to the web page that describes this. You should probably visit the UCSF web site at <a href="http://www.ucsf.edu" target="_blank">www.ucsf.edu</a> and do a search for Fresno. It will describe the campus and the news article about the site visit, which will list the other nine schools to be visited.
I hope this is clear...I'm having trouble with my web browser for some reason. Feel free to email me about it if you want.
