We’ve been meeting jointly with Peking University in Beijing and the National Taiwan...

    One of the coolest classes at USC is Naut 001A: Deepwater Cruising, an introductory sailing class. I heard about this class freshmen year, and I’ve been eagerly waiting till my senior year when I had enough room in my schedule to take it. Deepwater Cruising is offered through the Nautical Science program; the intro class I am currently taking covers the basics of sailing (how to identify the different parts...

    Okay maybe that previous statement isn’t exactly true.  Hawaii is probably my favorite place I’ve ever been to in the world.  Maybe a better title would be “Why LA is the greatest place in the world to live” because there is truly nowhere else with the same opportunities as LA.  First, LA has unparalleled weather.  I think we have had four rainy days this year.  On especially warm days, everyone...

    When I was looking for a university to attend after high school there were a few must-haves that I looked for. - Academics: Math and science were always my favorites in high school, therefore I was pretty certain that I wanted to study engineering in college. Naturally I wanted a school with a strong engineering program. -Size: I really wanted to go to school that had all the benefits of...

    One of the biggest reasons why I chose USC over the other schools I was looking at in high school was because I could get an engineering degree in 4 years.  While, some of the other schools did offer Industrial and Systems Engineering, their engineering program took 5 years to get a degree. Even though I live in Colorado, I do not like the cold, so I knew that I...

    It’s almost decision time for all you high school seniors out there! It seems like both yesterday and a million years ago that I was in your shoes. I know it’s tough and I appreciated any advice I could get my hands on, so this week I’ll be joining the other VSAs in explaining why I chose to attend USC. To give you some background: I applied to 11 schools...

    THE INITIAL APPEAL My parents started hassling me to make a list of things I wanted in a college at the beginning of my junior year. This was not something I had thought about and I didn’t really know what I should have an opinion about. Like most families I know, we had one of those 500 page books filled with facts about universities all of the country… which I...

    And no, I’m not talking about the summery weather we’ve been experiencing in Los Angeles lately. I’m talking about June Mountain! June Mountain is one of my favorite places to go snowboarding, especially as a college student, since I can get a college season pass for a mere $99. Although it’s been a pretty warm winter and the slopes haven’t gotten as much snow as I would like, my friends...

    I had a pretty great surprise today! My aunt and baby cousin were in town to visit the La Brea Tar Pits and the Page Museum, so I decided to make the drive to go meet them for a couple hours. I needed a study break anyway! When I got there and was about to pay for my ticket, I found out that USC students get into the museum for...

    My weekend in a nutshell: Eating my mother’s delicious Indian food, frolicking on the golden sand of Coronado Island’s beach, taking pictures at sunset at The Cove in La Jolla, playing mariokart and super smash bros. on a 60 inch television, and watching tennis and movies. I know some of that stuff sounds super touristy for someone from San Diego, but what was special about going home last weekend was...
