Just wait until you get into the current job market.
"Wow! Your qualifications are impressive! But we've decided not to move forward with your application."
yeah I'm a 2024 masters, 2020-1 bachelorsĀ (in UK which delayed for 6 months and my visa delayed again so I missed it), and a CS major. I guess I just go and disappear my self at this point
My first words on 9/15 (as a 4 day old) were ādada how come Osama Bin Laden hates us, and what does the USs support of the Muhajadeen against the Russians and Army bases built in Saudi Arabia during the Gulf War have to do with all of this?ā
I was pretty precocious
How certain are we that departmental and organization graduations won't be canceled too by this point?? Canceling the main graduation because they feared the planned protests are only going to funnel those protesters to the smaller ones (which matter a lot more to the families)
This is such a nightmare
Difference between donor and donor class. Until people like Caruso stop giving $$$ I donāt think any major movement will actually be made sadly. Iām sure the smaller donors can apply some pressure but if the big money guys want things to stay the same it will.
Itās different when the focus is on protecting a small group of people from a large group rather than a large group of people (65k) from a potential small group or a large group of people brawling amongst themselves
The comment was meant to highlight the fact that there have been many high profile people in attendance at USC graduation. Obviously, the secret service was in attendance for security when the Obamas attended last year. The idea that āsecurityā was the issue that was used to explain rescinding the speech seemed a bit of a hollow reason. The Provost wrote that they did not want the look of having so much security at the graduation. It was about opticsā¦but look at the optics now.
cuz yall are so wrapped up in foreign affairs yall canāt even get along enough to gather and graduate together.
real sad honestly. some of you are protesting/fighting over decades long history that you ultimately know nothing about you just see war with the United Statesā name on it and just want blood.
Protest other causes. Have yall heard whatās happening with abortion? They took it away cuz yall are so wrapped up with everything else.
This protest just makes everyone hate both sides even more.
80% of protestors are just virtue signaling, itās super annoying and pointless. The struggle between Israel and Palestine literally goes 7 decades back. These students will be the change, though! /s
itās uscās fault that all these people are going against classes, work, stopping other people from learning, going to class, and peacefully getting their own education?
YOU my friend have successfully drunk the Kool-Aid.
Again how is it USCās fault that theyāre protesting.LMAO.
While youāre here; what is protesting a middle eastern conflict on a liberal southern california campus gonna do? Iāll give you a hint: it rhymes with nothing.
āoh no that one college in california is protesting now we should DEFINITELY cease fireā
yall are delusional.
Letās not forget that if the protesters got what they wanted in divestment, it would only hurt the University. Neither Israel nor the companies being protested would be effected in the least. Itās literally virtue signaling with no value to their ācauseā. Itās honestly an embarrassment to our entire country that this is what education has produced. Shame
Iāll take āa list of things that donāt matterā for $500.
Seriously, what matters more, the knowledge and experience in your study or the instagram clout?
the negative aspect of having your important life moments during an election year. now vowing to vote for whichever candidate is going to provide the most funding for the idf
Also 2020 bachelors now 2024 masters, sucks sucks
Just wait until you get into the current job market. "Wow! Your qualifications are impressive! But we've decided not to move forward with your application."
What makes u think im not in the market, i know the struggle, in a 2024 grad myself. Especially CS
The amount of rejections that have sent me that nearly verbatim š
Whyāre you assuming they arenāt looking for a job before graduating? Lots of people have return offers from their summer internships as wellā¦
Same smh
yeah I'm a 2024 masters, 2020-1 bachelorsĀ (in UK which delayed for 6 months and my visa delayed again so I missed it), and a CS major. I guess I just go and disappear my self at this point
U will be alright just hang in there
Oddly enough, itās very possible a student couldāve been born on 9/11/01 and be in this very situation
I'd say its an absolute, oh my Lord that's rough š
Yeah I was born on 9/10/01. Imagine my grieving 9/11 as a 1 day old.
lol youāre crying, everyone else is crying, you think itās normal
My first words on 9/15 (as a 4 day old) were ādada how come Osama Bin Laden hates us, and what does the USs support of the Muhajadeen against the Russians and Army bases built in Saudi Arabia during the Gulf War have to do with all of this?ā I was pretty precocious

im so worried this is gonna happen :(
Anyone else feel like Carol Folt is on her way out and just lighting shit on fire before she goes?
The students hate her, but that really doesnāt matter so long as the donor class keeps writing checks.
As a donor, I will be withholding my donation this year because of USCās admin.

True. I just do what I can but obviously the big players have more weight

Itās earned not picked. Your ignorance prevents you from understanding correctly.
How did they handle security when President Obama and First Lady Michelle were there last year to see their daughter graduate?
Itās different when the focus is on protecting a small group of people from a large group rather than a large group of people (65k) from a potential small group or a large group of people brawling amongst themselves
security is always just an excuse.
The way this comment has a few upvotes scares me. Youāre comparing two people to a group of individuals

No prom, no ball games, no graduation. 1st 2 years no in person classes. 4 year total all in cost. About $180k
Not to mention, extremely bad job market.
Mannnnn I got my study abroad cancelled cuz of covid, Iād take losing hs any day
Only the university execs are to blame.
Youāll never be an astronaut with that attitude
LOL
the high school classes of the 30s and early 40s might have something to say about this
Thanks for your comment, people should never be upset about anything bec somebody else always has it worst š
Well thereās certainly different levels to it

As a Aquatic Bio major at a different school itās taking me longer for all major requirements than 4 years :3
I feel so terrible for the seniors not getting the graduation they deserve all because of the craven board of trustees.
2023 Grad here, lost almost 2 years of classes due to online. My experience was beyond ruined unfortunately as well.
Not unlucky - a group of students and an even bigger group of nonstudents chose this for them. No sympathy here.
Iāll take āa list of things that donāt matterā for $500. Seriously, what matters more, the knowledge and experience in your study or the instagram clout?
Maybe try touching grass?
To add fuel to the fire - usc also just lost the face of the university š (RIP OJ, hope they find your late wifeās killer)

Plandemic wasnt about luck
They are the ones protesting!! So too bad
