g and early morning hours at USC.
n "My staff is responsible for cleaning 4 million square
of classrooms and office buildings," said Jerry Schermerl
assistant director of CamDus Services. "Cleaning caroete
stripping floors are done all hours of the night so they i
conflict with summer classes."
And, once students arrive, Schermerhorn said, the
will empty 261 tons of garbage a month.
Ordering enough food to feed thousands of students
day also takes careful planning.
*We spend much of the summer planning menus,"
Steve Richards, director of USC Food Services. "The
week of school, well go through more than 18,000 hambi
g patties, 4,800 pounds of french fries and 20,000 drinks
that doesn't count the residence hall cafeterias."

feet Students found additional help moving in this year from
USC faculty and staff. More than 100 volunteers served rei
and freshments and helped carry belongings from cars to residence
hall rooms.
"This is one of the most exciting days for students," said
staff Terry Davis, director of the Office of Admissions. "By helping
them, our volunteers should ease some of the frustraeach
tions that often go along with getting settled in a new place."
"Most of thffbtudents and their narents are too excited and

them back for Parents Weekend in September."
