At a viewing party at the Culinary Training Academy in North Las Vegas, all three television sets were turned to the USC-UCLA basketball game. No CNN, Fox News, MSNBC. No Univision. Just hoops.

The mood was subdued as about 60 union members ate food -- catered by the Culinary workers -- and milled about.
