Financing Sprinklers and Other Fire Safety Upgrades

This is amazing and kuddos to USC.

But it goes back to the same old problem with state supported schools with lack of financial support from the Govt.

That is why supporting the Bills in Congress is so important to allow Alums to donate money and get tax breaks.

Good for USC! I appreciate that they are looking for creative ways to help protect students.

LPI Delta,
This is in the best interests of the university. Property near the university is astronomically expensive. Greek chapters house huge numbers of students. There is little room for dorms or the millions it would cost to house these sorority or fraternity members on campus. Keep in mind that necessary earthquake regulations raise the cost of buildings in Los Angeles.

Well I think its great that they are offering interest-free loans--because they didn't need to do that. The university is putting student safety first, and that is commendable.
