System falters I am extremely disappointed in the university’s failure to communicate with students, faculty and staff on Tuesday, April 27, while the school was on lockdown following a bomb threat to Leavey Library. The lives of all members of the Trojan Family are endangered when critical emergency information is not disseminated in a timely […]

Illegal means illegal I’m writing in response to the article written by Angad Singh on April 26, titled “Immigration Debate Needs Humanization.” Singh wrote: “No one is illegal. A human cannot be illegal.” He went on to write, “We have to understand the plight of illegal immigrants entering our state,” and that “amnesty should be […]

Presence of guns creates a safer society John Gudenzi’s opinion article published April 23, titled “Presence of guns would trigger anxiety,” is laden with misrepresentations.

The article exposed all sides of the issue, from the student bicyclist perspective to the student pedestrian perspective (albeit lacking some conviction), and also the perspective of DPS officials. I have […]

Recuperation of Troy Seriously? The fall of Troy? Wow. I honestly could not help but laugh at the headline in Monday’s Daily Trojan. A three-loss season at the end of a seven-year run of unprecedented success is certainly no reason to sound the alarms and call for an end to Troy’s reign. After all, it’s […]

Why don’t you tell me what’s going on? One of the reasons that the USC football team has problems adjusting to the adversity of raucous crowds on the road is because the USC athletic administration eradicated the familiarity of performing under adverse conditions during the spring of 2006. Perhaps some football fans can remember how […]

Cross purposes We have recently become aware of an event sponsored by the USC College Republicans on tonight, in which David Horowitz will be brought to our campus to give a speech entitled “The Campus War Against Israel and the Jews” as part of a yearly campaign entitled “Islamo Fascism Awareness Week” that he does […]

Time for debate We would to like to welcome Mr. Omar Barghouti, from the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic & Cultural Boycott of Israel, to USC. Born in Qatar and raised in Egypt, this self-titled Palestinian holds an American degree in engineering. In coming to USC, we hope that he sees our campus for not […]
