Potsdam, such as the -173 degree wind chill factor a friend told her hit there last week. Both decided to become part of the National Student Exchange program, which allows students to exchange places with students at other colleges and universities for up to a year.

The Flossmoore, 111., native had considered coming to USC as a freshman but decided to attend the closer Illinois State University. Reid decided to come to USC this semester for a change of pace. Another factor in his decision was that he had heard USC was developing a good business school. Marianne Krall, a marine science and zoology junior from the University of Maryland, came to USC because of the marine science department's reputation. "There are 'js :ipi i fina: //staff lunch S BS ? || HRS: Mon.-F Food? | , fam "upf > ...

Krall said another reason she chose USC was because her family used to vacation in South Carolina. The exchange students are faced with a variety of problems when they come to a different place, the main one being they don't know anyone, the students said. Shannahan, a business management iunior. countered this problem by coming to USC with two friends from Idaho, which he said made the transition easier for him.
