-
It's after midnight on the USC campus./p>
-
The lamps illuminate the campus yet cast shadows on every building.
-
There are so many lights that the runoff from the sprinklers shines like a sleek mirror.
-
Sprinklers are a defining feature of post-workday campus.
-
The buildings are empty and the lights are turned down.
-
An ocean fog comes upon the city and creates a hazy skyline.
-
The campus is empty and not one person can be seen.
-
Even the campus center, usually bustling with busy bodies is now barren with but a body to be seen.
-
The clock reads 3:15 a.m. Indeed, it is very late at USC.
-
Streets normally teeming with people are nowdeserted.
-
Even the bike stands have been vacated.
-
And the lone campus building security officals take their duty in the silence of the night.
