President Obama to speak at USC on October 22
One week from today, President Obama is scheduled to speak at the University of Southern California: on Friday, Oct. 22, at 1:30 p.m., according to the university.
Obama visited the campus in 2006, when he was a U.S. senator.
Next week he'll speak to students at McCarthy Quad near the Doheny Library.
The president will also be in California to attend a fundraiser for Sen. Barbara Boxer.

Or why not Occidental, his alma mater, where he "studied" for two years!

Great...President Obama is visiting USC and a Barbara Boxer fundraiser on Friday the 22nd. Think of how bad traffic will be again with him in town. Everyone who lives and works in the area should just leave town for the day because traffic will suck.

This is a historical visit by President Obama. USC is a history making place. It is a very special place and it is centrally located in the heart of the Los Angeles community.
Presidents and many other very important people have visited USC before and traffic issues have never stopped the show.
