Our Purpose
USC Staff Assembly is an officially-recognized branch of the university governance system and exists to promote the growth and welfare of staff employees. Assembly Members represent and are elected by regular (non-union), benefits eligible university staff. Through assigned committee work, Assembly Members research and provide recommendations on all matters related to staff work environment, benefits, and policies. Our diverse group includes staff from all areas of the USC community. Meet the Assembly>
