I give them a DOUBLE THUMBS UP

Since living in California I normally turn to the LA Times before the NY Times (just because most of the regional news is more pertinent to me now). I saw an article a couple minutes ago about how some USC Students were having a sit in to urge the school to use NON-sweatsuit shops to make the school apparel. I thought that this was a great idea, especially since I was in a similar group back at UofM. I was SHOCKED when I read that USC threatened to suspend the students and kick them out of university housing. It is an interesting story, and a good cause to fight for, so if you have a minute check out the whole story:

I give 5 stars for the effort put forth by the students and ZERO stars for USC threatening the kids with suspensions.
