ParHcs? Visitors to the campus often thinl that use is strictly a party school. Whether the fun takes place on the Row, the 9-0, or an individual ' s pri- vate apartment, Trojans, as seen from an outsider ' s vantage point, never seem to do anything else but party. To the thousands of students who attend this university, though, college life at ' SC is more than just a party. DKA films, Westwood trams, in- tramural sports, Friday night wom- en ' s volleyball games. . .the list of activities occurring on campus is endless. Regardless of what one ' s preferences are, there is always something that will catch the indi- vidual ' s interest. But the events are not limited to University Park. Cen- tered within one of the busiest cities in the country, USC affords its stu- dents with an abundance of oppor- tunities for fun and enjoyment. Museums, concerts, beaches. . .Los Angeles complements this univer- sity extrememly well in terms of its cultural and recreational base. A party school? Southern Cal is too diverse to be trapped in such a simple pretext. Admittedly, parties are a common site around this uni- versity. But so are movies, dances, sporting events, plays, speakers. . . by Russ Whismore Opening 9
