Skate Boards Banned In Med School Tunnel
By CAROL DECK
The note read, “We are informed that junior and senior medical students have been riding skate boards down the hospital tunnel. Lest someone gets hurt, the county has asked us to request that the CHILDREN desist.”
It was posted at the USC School of Medicine and signed by Dr. William E. Nerlich, associate dean of student affairs at the school.
It showed up the next day in Matt Weinstock’s column in the Los Angeles Times.
It was a result of at least three students using skate boards in the tunnel which connects the School of Medicine and various parts of the Los Angeles County Hospital.
Were the skate boarders a nuisance? Did they get in people’s way? No, what the
| county was worried about was that students falling off skate boards might be run over by one of the trams carrying supplies from one area of the hospital to another.
Dr. Nerlich added that they were worried about pedestrians as well.”
But there is hope for skateboarding medical students. Section 56.15 of the L.A. Municipal Code says “No person shall coast down, along, upon or over any street or sidewalk in any wagon, cart, hand wagon, coaster, bicycle or other vehicle or skate along, upon or over any sidewalk.”
Skate boards are considered coasters. But there is no mention in the code of the tunnel under L.A. County Hospital.
Don Spyrison officially announced his candidacy for junior class president and blamed the students in student government rather than the constitution for the ailments of the ASSC.
