The 2023-2024 academic year has come to an end. But the memories are still fresh in our minds. Enjoy highlights of the wonderful things our students and faculty did this past year - from our end-of-semester performances at The Bing Theatre to Kaufman Connections to our study-abroad travels to London, South Korea, and Berlin. We can’t wait for more in 2024-2025!

"As a first generation university student, I would have never imagined having the opportunity to visit such a rich and vibrant city—learning the history, art, and culture embedded within its cobblestoned streets and spray painted walls. Thankfully through the Maymester program, this dream became a three-week reality!"

Today, USC Kaufman joins the wider university community to observe Juneteenth, a national holiday commemorating the day the Union army arrived in Texas to liberate the state’s enslaved population on June 19, 1865.
We honor that moment by continuing the fight for racial equality, creating a more diverse equitable and inclusive school, and celebrating the triumphs of Black Americans.
We invite you to read Juneteenth remarks by Dean Julia M. Ritter at the link in our bio.
INTRODUCING “VOLARE” — USC Viterbi School along with alumnus Reuben Levine, and help from faculty and students at USC Kaufman, USC Thornton and USC Cinema, tell the story of modern communications—and timeless tale of love through the story of Andrew and Erna Viterbi. STAY TUNED FOR MORE in Fall 2024.
