UCLA

The truth is that UCLA and USC are both good schools. There are good people and pricks at each school. The rivalry between the two breeds hatred in certain people on both sides. I'm a UCLA student, but I respect USC.

It's cool that we compete in everything, but it should be a friendly rivalry. This hatred is just not needed. The fact that LA can house two prestigious universities like UCLA and USC is amazing.

UCLA students and USC students should respect each other.

God, I can't believe how shamelessly racist some of these USC student comments are. I'm currently wondering which school to go to--I've been accepted by both. I mean, can't one of you USC students at least mention you don't want those comments to be associated with your school?

Hi, I'm a USC student who hardly flinches at the perpetuation of the "rich racist white snob" stereotype my university has held throughout its existence.

Mr. Anonymous Trojan, check out the second page of UCLA definitions. You'll find that a lot of your buddies from USC were making overly negative, hateful definitions about UCLA before Trojankiller posted his definitions. And unlike most of the asinine comments your buddies made, his definitions are filled with "facts" about UCLA's academic and athletic prestige.

Don't get your panties into a bunch because UCLA students don't just lie down for your abuse. If you want to give it, you better learn to take it. It's also ironic that you can criticize someone for using the internet while you're doing the same thing. Insecure much?

Trojans get so sensitive when UCLA students use facts to set them straight. Cry me a river.

It is funny how USC students never have a factual claim to back up being better than UCLA and resort to absurd comments to try and compensate. What is not funny is that they pay more than double than a UCLA student, live in south central, are one of the worst private institutions, obviously will always be ranked lower than UCLA, and ironically only go to USC because UCLA would never contemplate accepting them anyways-it's just sad.

USC will always be in the rear view mirror of UCLA-wishing and hoping to one day compare.

The real "University of Spoiled Children." The students at UCLA pay a fraction of what USC students pay and go to a university with a better academic ranking and better faculty in a better neighborhood.

USC students have to stoop to making racist comments about Asian people to justify getting raped for tuition at an inferior school in a horrible part of LA. Keep up that type of attitude. It's sad how much some of you fit the Trojan stereotype.

And I guess all of those USC students on financial aid are just poor white trash. It's good to know that you people think so much of the lower income students at your school.

Usually, being a private institution means being better. This is not the case with USC, which has lower academic rankings than both UCLA and Cal. As a private school, USC is an underachiever. You're better off not mentioning the whole private vs. public thing since it only makes you look worse.

If you want to go to the best university in the LA area, go to UCLA. USC students pay about six times the price UCLA students pay, yet the school is lower in the rankings. Don't get ripped off. Get spoiled at UCLA.

UCLA is ranked number 25 in the nation overall by US News. SC, the supposedly great private institution is only ranked number 30. And Cal is ranked at number 21.

Talk about your freshman class all you want, SC. The bottom line is that you're not better academically than UCLA or Cal, and you never will be. Your student body consists of people who were rejected by UCLA. If you want to go to a private school in California, go to Stanford. At least you get a superior education for the extra money you pay over there.

And about your sports dominance, which university has the most NCAA team sports titles? Could it be SC? Nope, they have 83. Stanford? They have 88. Oh yeah, UCLA is number 1 in NCAA team championships with 95.

And how many men's basketball titles does SC currently hold? Zero! The sports arena draws about two people per game. And your new facility will never have the history of Pauley Pavillion behind it. Hey, UCLA sucks in football but at least they won one title in the sport. SC will never win a men's basketball title.

It will take more than a few blown calls to beat Oklahoma. Good luck winning a legitimate national championship in football.

USC is filled with students who were turned down by UCLA. Now they want to talk about being better because of their freshman class. It's hilarious.

What do UCLA and USC students have in common? They were all admitted to USC.

Every year, the London Times ranks the best colleges in the world. In the most recent edition of the Times Higher Education Supplement, UCLA was ranked number 26 in the world. Cal was ranked number 2 in the world. Stanford was ranked number 7. Where do you think USC was ranked in the world?

USC was ranked number 180 in the world by the London Times! I guess your entrance requirements aren't helping you much.

US News had UCLA ranked at number 25, Cal ranked at number 21, and USC ranked at number 30 for this year. That's because they consider the amount of money alumni give to each school. Of course private schools like USC will have inflated rankings in the US News guide. And even with that, UCLA is ranked higher in the US News list.

Let's see here...UCLA-26, USC-180...USC better in academics? Please!

It's a known fact that UCLA looks at more than just your scores when selecting students. Ask anybody who's been turned down by the school. You need extracurricular activities as well as high gpa and SAT scores.

And to the morons at SC who say they don't pay $30,000 a year, if you're getting loans, you will be paying for it. Unless you get grants or scholarships, you will be paying that community college in the ghetto sooner or later. Fight on for higher fees at a much lesser school!

According to the London Times, UCLA is number 26 in the world academically. And USC is 180. Wow. Maybe USC needs to make the entrance requirements even tougher.
