There has to be some kind of middle ground that can be reached between Lil Bill and this new bike shop. We can't just take these past 40 years of work he's done and act like they're nothing!

A family owned business that's been operating for more than 40 years is being kicked off campus IN THE NAME OF CAPITALISM? What else could the university possibly need in terms of monetary gain - let the poor man keep his damn business. He isn't doing anyone harm, and probably has wonderful bonds and friendships with the students that give him business. He never got to obtain a degree - this is the closest he has been and will be to a university. Keep Bill on campus. Let him support his family. What have you got to lose? Is the monetary gain from the Village's projected bike business really worth potentially ruining this man's life?

He is great. It is wrong to make him leave. Do us all a favor and let him stay.

Be a Trojan Family and protect ALL members of this family - especially those that have spent so much of their lives making USC a better place.

I support small businesses and this isn't just about some contract with USC opening up the village--it's about 40 years of a family business being destroyed and a family suddenly losing their livelihood.

Don't know what I would do without this bike shop, the owner has helped me countless times! He's fair in his pricing and is one of the few places USC hasn't built over. Listen to your students USC!!

A man like this would be welcome at UW Milwaukee! Shameful that USC wants to do this.
