Beg to differ, but from what my sophomore daughter (lives on the row) tells me, Campus Cruiser and the Trams are a joke. There is a tram stop right in front of her sorority but she has never seen one, and she said the wait for Campus cruiser is at least an hour. I wish the Univ. would stop touting these modes of transport to ease parents’ fears. That being said, she feels relatively safe and understands that there is safety in numbers. I have been there half a dozen times and do not feel any less safe than if I were walking in the vicinity of UPenn in west Philly. USC is in a poorer part of a big city and you have to use common sense.
