CU Boulder is not exactly inexpensive but I image it's less costly than many California schools. The Boulder area, including rent, is a bit expensive.
Colorado State University in Fort Collins is about an hour north of Boulder and is less expensive overall.
Both are nice college towns with lots to do.
The companies I worked for in Silicon Valley all had a start-up vibe to them. We worked long hours, company paid for pizza dinner, beer bashes, and occasional on-campus bands on Fridays. We had a few off-site 'team building' events too. I think the beer bashes became a liability so they disappeared. But man, we DID work long hours and enjoyed it. But I was much younger then!
