Save Lil Bill's Bike Shop

Great asset to campus life.

There is something to be said for building a clientele and having business integrity. Leave the lil guys along to build a happy life!!!

A nice man doing a good service should be rewarded. Sole Cycle should do their own thing and if they offer good services there is room for both. This university should show its students that it stands by small family businesses and leave Bill right where he is.

let him stay. he has done a service to students you should be ashamed to put this man out of work.

As a long time bike rider, see through the racism of USC.

I understand the USC has signed a contract guaranteeing the new shop in the university village a lack of competition, so perhaps not much can be done now. But it really is important that USC figures out how to deal fairly with the owner of this establishment if he is to be displaced.

Weigh the motivation of removing him against the benefit to him, his family and our community.

Save the shop!

Please save his job. He deserves way more from our Trojan Family.

As an graduating undergrad student at USC, I have spent 5 years at the best school in the world. I have felt mightily blessed to walk these grounds and learn from some of the best and brightest minds, and not once did I take this school, or the many opportunities it provides, for granted. But now I must speak up against my once beloved school. The atrocities the minority's groups have faced both on and off the campus will not be tolerated. It is time USC proves it's values it brags to hold so high and support the Los Angeles community that has hosted it for over a century. How can I be proud to be a Trojan when my "family" is exploiting our neighbors and destroying families by removing a source of income that they have come to rely on for decades? He has committed his life to fixing Trojan bikes, and though it may appear to be a menial task, any Trojan would tell you a broken bike could be the difference between being failing an exam or arriving early to a class and claiming that coveted seat where nothing and no one is obstructing your view of the professor's barely legible notes. Lil Bill isn't just a neighbor-- he's family. He has watched generations upon generations walk onto campus in freshman awe and walk of the graduation stage a groomed member of society, and he was been there for every step in between. Be the Trojan Family we all know and love, the one who looks out for our own. Lil Bill deserves more from you, USC. He deserves more from us. -Sincerely, A Soon-to-be-Trojan-Alumn

this is part of the communities History.

I like this bike shop, always good service at good deal.

Not only does this jeopardize someone's livelyhood, This is a monopoly. capitalism should encourage healthy competition.

I sure hope this help Bill! Thank you for always servicing my bike at a reasonable price, I was really hurt to find out what they were doing to you.

Lil Bill represents all that is good when it comes to bridging the community to the students who attend the university. If you want your students to care, you should care yourself.

Please support and empower local businesses.

Support local business owners!

How dare you, USC. I'm embarassed.
