Also Universal boardwalk, Farmer's market (near the Grove), the Getty Museum, LACMA (the Getty is WAY better, imo). You can also see about getting into some studio backlots for tourists, Rodeo Drive, Hollywood (preferably during the day, lol), West Hollywood, Los Feliz, Silverlake, drive around Beverly Hills and look at the mansions, lol. You can also go on those hollywood house tours (never did it myself).

Oh yeah. USC? Man that area is pretty ghetto. I really wouldn't want my kids/siblings living there. Maybe your bro should transfer to UCLA? Westwood is a nice area, on the westside, very safe.
