USC 2010 Transfer Thread

<p>Since only 25 people are admitted to Screenwriting, and a load of freshman have already been admitted, I’m wondering if there are even any spots left for transfers now. If not, I’d be thrilled to be admitted in creative writing & minor in screenwriting. On the bright side, doing that would save me two years.</p>

<p>Michael Schur. He is(was) a writer for The Office and now is the creator of Parks & Recreation. Most importantly, he wrote for the sports blog FireJoeMorgan.com, a must read for baseball fans!</p>

<p>Muhammad Ali. BAMMMMMM Love this guy. Freakin inspirational :D</p>
