bottom of the page at usc...

well maybe its not THAT similar lets check out the file names of the graphics...

And now for USC...

Alright alright, they could have just named the files the same, maybe i am being too hard on them, lets compare the background images!

Heres cos.edu...

And now usc.edu!

So far the only differences I have seen is that some amateur loaded the graphics into Adobe© Photoshop and changed some colors.

Please don't take my word for it though! Goto the College of the Sequoias website at www.cos.edu and then check out the University of Southern California website at www.usc.edu and make a decision for yourself.

If you feel like this is theft of the University of Southern California website, please contact College of the Sequoias and encourage them to change their layout. Contact information can be found of the respective pages :)

Who am I?

Hello and welcome to my first attempt at changing the world around me.

You don't know who I am, I don't know you but I felt I had to do this. The college I goto is corrupt and has a double standard regarding plagiarism. The school administrators are allowed to steal from other websites yet punishes students who download papers off the internet.

I hate this, I want it to change, but the board of directors has shown time and time again they do not want to listen to students. Teachers even raised questions regarding the websites legality before it went live, and they were ignored.

I don't want fame, I just want the school to fess up and give the students a website that is original, functional, and more importantly is not someone else's.
