<p>I got into Honors Program for Engineering, and my mother still seems not convinced -_- gosh… Thinks Cal still have a way better EE program, go to better graduate school, and they are better employed… I’m trying my best to proove USC is a better opportunity for me, but we’ll see.</p>
<p>Tell your mom that the " reputation " that UCLA and especially UCB rest on is NOT due to the the quality of its UNDERGRADUATE programs, but from it’s Graduate programs. It will be FAR better for you to be in an Honors EE program , with the huge benefit of being in small classes at USC, rather than huge classes with hundreds of students in a big lecture hall at UCB or UCLA ,as well as be able to put on your CV that you were a honors student AND Trustee scholar. She need to trust you and others who know the value of a Trustee scholarship , and get over her fixation that where you went college for your UG degree is more important than what you accomplish there. 4 years from now, when USC has climbed even further up the rankings, and you are still trying to finish your UG education at UCB, but can’t because of severe cutbacks in classes at the UC’s that are are coming, you’ll be sorry ,and so will she.</p>

<p>I didn’t realize UCLA (or any idividual UC, for that matter) handled its own IP. Every UC license agreement I’ve seen is with the UC Regents, and not any particular school. Maybe the UCs re-allocate among themselves based on where the IP was actually developed?</p>
