This is the third incident of a Chinese student being murdered near that campus in recent years. No suspect yet but the campus sit smack dab in the middle of South Central, and is surrounded by predators. It sends a horrific message to domestic and international students. http://news.yahoo.com/chinese-grad-student-found-beaten-death-near-usc-181335436.html
Very sad but this is what happens when a prestigious and expensive school like USC is blocks away from a ghetto. Those wolves are hungry and they're gonna hunt. When I have kids, I would only send them to USC if I knew for sure they are street smart and can handle themselves. If not, they're going to Pepperdine or UCLA.
