hitomimay Posted April 13, 2012 Author Posted April 13, 2012 Be careful about USC and don't live off campus: http://www.latimes.c...0,6840970.story Not to have people freaking out regarding off-campus housing and not to be crass about recent tragedies, but let's be real. USC is located in a large city, crimes always occur in major cities. You need to be smart about what you're doing, for instance, not sitting in an expensive-looking car in the dead of night, and start being more vigilant. I come from Detroit, and teach inner-city kids in gangs, and you need to be real with yourself, crimes are more prevalent here in major cities, walk in groups, don't stay out too late at night, use Campus Cruiser (they are a service that drives you home near campus at all hours if you feel the need for extra safety)...etc. Most of the recent crimes around USC have been cases of students not being too careful past 1AM. I don't think people should shy away from off-campus housing near USC: it's convenient walking/biking distance from campus, and mostly consisted of USC students. Just be smart. Sigaba 1

cthuyn Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 Hi everyone, I am a current grad student at USC. My friend and I are looking for a roommate to live in a 3BD2BR apartment in Chinatown (the roommate would share a bathroom with me). Rent would be $650/mo with a security deposit of $975. There are 2 parking spots in a gated garage and street parking. There is a washer/dryer in the unit and central heating/AC. We're looking for someone to rent starting in July. If you're interested, you can email me at cthuyn@gmail.com or PM me.

Duna Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 (edited) Hey dumbo! I'd like to play badminton and I'd love to join the equestrian team but I guess as a PhD student I won't have enough time and money for riding ;( Edited June 15, 2012 by Saviya
