heres the best way to put it. if you get into USC you’re smart stuff. but you also don’t want to go to a school thats all about smart stuff. you wanna have fun too. best analogy: went to a frat party and met a cool frat guy who was definitely down for partying and seemed pretty fratty. the next day i see the same guy in one of the group study rooms in the library writing out some crazy engineering stuff on the white board. people here know how to balance everything. we go out and have fun, but still know that we’re first and foremost here to get an education
