Student Organizational Conduct

To help you make fully informed choices about joining student organizations at USC, we provide a report on organizational conduct violations dating back to 2011. Think about this information as you evaluate the safety and integrity of the organizations you’re considering joining. Make a plan to be an active bystander in an unsafe situation and know what you can do to stop harmful behavior and get help for yourself and your peers. We care about your safety and well-being, and we appreciate your support as we work together, guided by the tenets of the Carolinian Creed, to keep our campus and community safe.
