<li><p>A new law in Los Angeles states that smoking is not allowed within 10 feet of eating establishments and is also banned from outdoor eating patios; that’s why there’s a smoking section by the student center since people eat outside at the tables. Other than that, smoking is allowed pretty much anywhere else (outdoors) on campus. I am a smoker and during my UG career and this current grad career haven’t experienced being told I was/wasn’t allowed to smoke in a certain area.</p></li>
<li><p>Traddies is open, it just has limited hours. Alcohol is also served at several USC owned eateries in the area — Rossos, The Lab and Moreton Fig. The 9-0 is the “frat bar,” but there is also the 2-9 cafe (wine and beer), Bacaro (wine bar, serves beer too) and La Barca (Mexican place popular with students that serves alcohol.) Do keep in mind that, with the opening of the Metro line, Downtown is extremely accessible; since it’s close by, you can also take a cab. DTLA has many, many bars (ranging from dives to upscale) that are open until 2am.</p></li>

<p>Everything else was answered pretty well. LOL at the jobs thing. Of course you have to apply or show interest in jobs and internships! Haha.</p>
