I find this response to go against the very meaning of writing about race, class, gender and self discovery. The idea that I should stay silent because it may upset a few folks is insulting and frankly a bit scary. Again, it is because I love USC, that I will also be critical of it in order to improve its services and academic endeavors towards future generations of students.
