Whenever you see news stories about UC Berkeley, you see images of Sproul Plaza or Sather Gate and/or the Campanile. Basically, parts of the campus that have been around for a long time.
But in coverage of USC, I've noticed that national publications show images of USC University Village, which opened in August 2017, to represent the campus.
I've seen this even before yesterday's scandal news.
It's odd that something that didn't exist a couple years ago has become so "university looking" that it has come to represent a historic campus.
(I go to USC University Village every so often because it has an Amazon Store, and I could order something online at night and pick it up the next day without extra cost. Or I could drop off a return at no extra cost. It's kind of nice and "university looking" but I wouldn't want UC Berkeley to have such a thing -- which, I'm sure, is an unpopular opinion around here.)
