<p>Well, you aren’t likely to get gunned down at Stanford going from your dorm to the central part of campus. It’s not likely at USC either, but many have blamed USC’s graduate student housing for the recent student deaths. If USC could provide more close-by housing to students (grad or undergrad), the likelihood of this happening again would be less. So it kinda does matter where the housing is.</p>
