<p>granted, i understand exactly what peals is saying, and is only exemplified by the rather "rude" UCLA people (well person) near the beggining (not KC), granted though i am a little miffed why this post was made, havent you been here for a while peals? why should this be new to you?</p>
<p>heck i posted about this but it was earlier on, before i knew better.</p>
<p>the answer is highly exepmplified by the sources of the contrary and negative posts you'll see.</p>
<p>From what i've gathered though, most anybody outside the unecesarily equivable in state rivalry bubble of ignorance USC is increasingly respected, and contrary to what many say has a strong alumni network, one of the strongest actually.</p>
<p>still it is bothersome. plenty of schools have rivalrys and/or flaws, but no place does seem to have annoying little ticks milking them for everything they've got like in this situation, it becomes annoying after a while as USC is close to breaking the top 25 schools and likewise has people who work equally as hard as many of those schools to excell and achieve, and dont like their acheivements crapped on by people who think it's funny to pretend they arent even in the top tier, regardless of how much of a stony skin they develop.</p>
<p>there indeed isnt much one can do about it, but it still is an unfortunate thing to witness.</p>
