<p>After reading these posts I apologize for my sharp and borderline rude tone, which was not my intent. I approached the subject as if I were advising Nikias and the Board of Trustees as an attorney, not realizing that many of the readers are self conscious teenagers as I once was. My frustration is with the administration, not classes of students. So please don’t take offense to my previous comments.</p>
<p>That said, I’m more alarmed by USC’s rapid and uncontrollable growth, especially at the graduate school level. We are bursting at the seams, and until USC makes across the board cuts among all student groups, its lofty goal to achieve elite status will fail.</p>
