Welcome!

Hi everyone, and welcome to USC all you new freshmen! I hope you all have a great experience over the next four years, and that you consider getting involved with USG. USG provides one of the best opportunities to enact change at USC, as well as the chance to meet some of the top student leaders on campus. Also take advantage of this blog, which will be a great source of information over the coming year. If you have any questions about anything at all, feel free to contact me at jercinov@usc.edu. Good luck with school and remember to always fight on!

Sincerely,

Tony Jercinovich
Vice President

Japanese Ramen at DAIKOKU


Do you want to try traditional Japanese ramen?
This is one of Japanese ramen restaurants in Little Tokoy.
One of their special food is Daikoku ramen made of miso soup,
pork, bean sprouts, egg, and noodle.
It might taste a little strong for people who try it first time,
but it would be addicting.
