Colleges also pump money into their campuses
and into the outlying businesses, the study
found. UCLA bested crosstown rival USC in
home attendance at all sporting events in 2018.
The Bruin fans numbered 526,000 compared
to 469,000 for the Trojan faithful.
Loyola Marymount drew 100,000 spectators
to its games and matches. Pepperdine University
ranked fourth in local collegiate fandom at
92,000. Cal State Long Beach ranked fifth in
the Greater L.A. area for collegiate crowds at
83,000 a year ago, according to figures from
the U.S. Department of Education.
UCLA also had the most student-athletes
in the region with 818. USC was ranked
third in this non-economic category with 626
behind Mt. San Antonio Community College.
A couple of lesser-known schools --Claremont
McKenna and Cal Lutheran University in
Thousand Oaks --rounded out the top five
for the largest number of athletes enrolled
in 2018.
College athletics is a $1 billion industry locally
and responsible for creating 10,700 jobs
that coordinate, staff and support the NCAA
athletes at both large and small schools. Unlike
the professional sports, colleges are non-profits
and all revenue from sales of tickets and
merchandise go directly to the school and its
students, the authors noted. •

proposed annual total increase will be $80.74
for 2020. Milleman added that both companies
will likely have an additional water increase
when West Basin “predictably” increases
rates as it has done every six months. He
added that water rate increases will be likely
for the foreseeable future as technology and
regulations continue to advance.
“Inflation and salaries are a relatively
small part of what you’re seeing with the
cost of water,” Milleman explained. “What
it is is technology – we can now measure
things that we couldn’t measure before that
are bad for us and so the EPA has studied
these contaminants and said, ‘Let’s remove
them from the water because it’s bad for
you.’ That treatment technology takes a lot
of money to implement.” •
