I
loved my time at USC. I think I can provide
a different image of this school based on my background/activities/etc.
and hopefully dispel some of these rumors. First of all,
let's get over the idea that everyone is is shallow
and rich and from Southern California. I am NOT rich,
not shallow and I grew up overseas. I was in
a sorority, but I joined my sophomore year and I
was also on a scholarship. I never had a car
while attending USC and still managed to have a fabulous
time. The USC campus is not located in the best
area of Los Angeles, but its community relations are part
of what earned it the spot as top university as
awarded by Time Magazine in 2000. The academic possibilities are
limitless. I was always able to meet with professors when
I needed to and feel confident that I can continue
to call on them to assist me in the future.
I have heard some stories about difficulties with academic advisors,
but you are going to hear such stories at any
school and I never had any problem getting help with
my schedule from advisors in three different departments. I found
my current job through a listserv set up by the
IR department and continue to get great job, internship, and
fellowship opportunities. The Trojan Network is truly amazing. Is USC
a party school? Let's just say that if you want
to have a good time, there are plenty of ways
to do that? Are fraternities and sororities the only way
to do it? No! Do you have to go Greek?
Of course not. Does it help to love sports at
USC? Yes, if you want to safely make it through
the middle of campus on game day. :) USC offers
so much to its student body. There is a place
for everyone and something for every interest. Couple tips. Get
involved in a couple things. I sang in the Gospel
Choir and tried club sports. Try and sign up for
the film class 466, where you'll get to see movies
before they come out in the theaters. It's awesome! Try
something new and make the most of your undergrad years,
regardless of where you decide to go. And don't think
that by NOT going to USC, you are going to
be able to avoid drunken students, obnoxious roommates, snooty girls,
overzealous football fans or any of the other characters that
make college interesting. Remember that as important as learning in
college is, it's what you learn about yourself that is
most important.
