Update from the USC Presidential Search Committee

July 31, 2025

Dear Trojan Family,

On behalf of the Presidential Search Committee, we are thrilled to share the presidential search brochure and position summary that resulted from your feedback over the spring and early summer. With input from nearly 8,000 survey participants and more than 1,100 members of the Trojan Family at 50 in-person and virtual listening sessions, we heard directly from you about the priorities and qualities we should seek in our next president, and what makes USC unique and special. While we could have included countless more details about our incredible university, the final brochure synthesizes the extensive input we received and reflects a snapshot of USC, to be shared with prospective candidates.

We thank you again for the time and care you took engaging with us during the listening phase of our search.

The Presidential Search Committee is actively engaged and we encourage you to continue sharing your input and submitting nominations via the Presidential Search landing page. We will continue to provide updates during the course of the search to keep you informed on our progress.

Fight On!
