Congrats to you and your son farmer! The budget cutbacks have definitely affected students applying this year, so I'm sure this has made it even more sweeter. My brother got into UCSD for the fall semester so I'm really proud of him too, he's just waiting to hear from UCLA, I know your a USC fan haha, and if he gets in there then I'm sure my parents will throw him a huge party.
One of my buddies graduated from Long Beach last year, and I used to visit him at the campus often. Pretty nice place to hang out, lots of on campus activities, just make sure to never park your car on the street. My friends Honda Civic Si got broken into twice, and then finally straight up stolen!
If your son's considering medicine, tell him to go for it! I'm a 3rd year medical student myself, and even though it's a shit load of work, with the current outlook on jobs and the economy it's good to know that the medical field is somewhat recession proof. There is always a lack of physicians, and that means you'll find a job with pretty good income.
