+1.  the former president wanted to remarket it as "LA's school" but that's obviously USC and it never went anywhere.  Oxy is in an armpit of Los Angeles County nowhere near Los Angeles proper.  Look at a map[/quote]

You are not a young person, and seem to be nursing an old wound [b](don't know when this president was[/b], before our time and DC has graduated).  The Highland Park side of Oxy in particular is exactly the sort of LA experience my DC was after.  No false advertising, I think the regional rep even said, something about food trucks not Laker games.  Anyway, plenty to see, plenty to do ($1 comedy shows), everyone else has a car so need for another.  Something tells me what you consider 'good' LA, might meet a college student's definition of the worst.  Either way, given all the other schools out there, Oxy's location is not worth remarking on in this thread, the campus is pretty, tucked away, but memorably situated on a hillside.[/quote]

Jonathan Veitch, the one just before the current President, Elam.  https://www.lamag.com/longform/trouble-oxy/2/.  Oxy is in a questionable burb between Glendale and Pasadena . No one thinks "it is in L.A." even though technically it has the zip code.[/quote]
