She said she felt an emptiness when she went to start her own business because she no longer had supporting faculty and students around her. Strickland wants other students to know they do not have to be afraid of life after USC.. "They can take what theyVe learned and use it, even if it means creating their own job," Strickland said "There may not be a job waiting for students when they are graduated, but if they have a vision, some good imagination and are willing to work, they can make their own job." lies 4 m | m wm * the latest r Parisian. m v m m Ml M m 1
