USC’s University Park Master Plan is giving back to the community in many different ways. USC has made it their goal to improve university life, which includes both on and off campus settings. They have created many ways to produce jobs and security for everyone involved at USC. Their main goal in this master plan is to intertwine the on campus culture with the surrounding area, and create a safer environment to harvest this relationship. I like that USC is trying to expand the available on-campus housing by creating over 7,000 more beds to accommodate additional students and faculty. By doing this USC is creating more local jobs for workers assigned to build these structures and maintenance while increasing the number of students working for their graduate degree. This vow to improve local surroundings for USC students and citizens of south Los Angeles has given USC an honorable name around the community.
USC has seemed to make an effort to include the community surrounding in their master plan, and I agree that their actions are honorable. Hopefully they follow through with their plans and keep the school's interests as well as the community's interests in mind.
ReplyDeleteIt wouldn't be beneficial if the USC housing replaced people's current homes to make room. It would be interesting to see where they're planning on putting the housing without adversely effecting the community.
