<p>Question for Mr. Berry:</p>
<p>Why is this topic on the UC-General forum? While I certainly don’t “want” it on the USC forum, I often find I have to remind the youngsters that USC is not a UC and direct them to the USC forum. The presence of a USC-specific topic on the UC-General forum may add to their confusion.</p>
<p>The UCs are the public University of California system while USC is a private university, not tied to the UC or CSU system in any way other than their common location in the state of California.</p>
<p>Thanks for your reply!</p>
