<p>If a student lands a great internship which is far from campus and not easy to get to on one bus, then a car is really a necessity. Students who live driving distance of campus and who want to go home on the week-ends also need a car. Otherwise, there is zip car and buses near the campus. Also, there are probably organized social activities sponsored by the dorms at USC which should be able to get you to where you want to go.</p>
