Mold growing in dorms is an issue almost all students are aware of, but the university has hidden behind unverified statistics and blamed students for causing some of these issues. Students deserve more transparency about the state of their dorm rooms.

USC students reported hundreds of instances of mold growth in on-campus dorms, detailing it crawling on their dressers, ceilings and pillows. 

Most mold outbreaks occurred in older dorms, prompting allergies, continuous coughing and asthma attacks. USC's maintenance system is outdated, meaning it can't efficiently track or analyze student complaints.
