USC is the
acronym for
University of
Southern California. This University is situated in a rather
dangerous area within
Los Angeles close to the
Coliseum and
Sports Arena. To the schools credit in the area of security they have enough
money to ensure safety within a 2 or so mile radius. The
students are known as being
Trojans. They have been ranked in the first tier of schools by
Newsweek consistently for quite some time and attained
Time's "School of the year" award. They offer
degree programs for a large number of majors for attaining a
BA,
BS,
MS, or
PhD.
This school is known to be a very large rival to UCLA with areas of the campus often times having FUCLA stickers adorned to them. The feud is so bad that the respective schools must increase security around campus during the time near their football games with each other to reduce the number of vandalizations.
Some unofficial alternate names for this university are:
University of Second Choice
University of Spoiled Children
University of South Central
It also may very well be the only place you can see an asian girl riding around on a skateboard while talking on a cell phone and sipping her cappuccino.
