Break-in spate hits USC area
Burglars prey on unlocked doors while tenants are inside, DPS says.

A recent string of break-ins at unlocked apartments near campus prompted Department of Public Safety officials to urge students to always lock their windows and doors.
But sometimes even a resident's presence does not deter burglars. Three of the five burglaries reported over or around spring break occurred while students were inside the residence, according to DPS reports.
DPS Capt. David Carlisle said while the trend seems to have ended — stopped by either thc arrest of the suspected burglar by the Los Angeles Police Department last Wednesday, or students returning from break — residents must still be aware of their surroundings.
“The message we want to deliver is to lock and secure your apartment when you're going to be gone,” Carlisle said. "Tell neighbors you trust when you’re going to be away so when they see anything suspicious, call DPS.”
Shana Paris, a junior majoring in public relations, was talking on her cell phone on the second floor of her Menlo Avenue apartment at about 12:30 p.m. March 20 when someone entered through an unlocked door and stole two laptops, money and keys from two first-

The Spirit Activities Card will cease to exist next school year, according to an approved resolution from Provost C. L. Max Nikias.
The plan, which stemmed from President Steven B Sample’s concern with the cards’ distribution and expenditures, was finalized Tuesday by Vice President for Student Affairs Michael L Jackson and the Athletics Department
Admission to all sporting
events, with the exception of football games, will be free to all undergraduates with student identification cards. Football tickets will be sold separately in a S135 season pass.
"That was what we heard from the students that they wanted," said Steve Lopes, senior associate athletic director
Some students applauded the changes.
“Free is always good. That seems more reasonable," said Sam Siam, an undeclared freshman “I would
still be willing to pay for the tickets for football."
Others said thev feel that the changes won’t make any difference.
“It’s almost kind of the same thing," said Melissa Blood, a junior majoring in business administration. “The majority of why people purchase their cards is football anyw'ays. I wish it was more for everything else ... people should support all of our sports.”

By KATIE HILL
Daily Trojan
The elimination of the Spirit Activities Card has raised concerns about the future of El Rodeo.
Originally included with admission to athletic and university events with the purchase of a $135 Spirit Activities Card, the
yearbook will be sold separately and "marketed to students as a stand-alone item next fall,” said Mona Cravens, director of Student Publications.
“I don’t think anybody purposely went after El Rodeo,” said Heather Larabee, director of campus activities "Athletics needs the money, and El Rodeo
