“Open dialogue is easy to support in principle but more difficult to ingrain in the culture and actions of a university. USC is 100% committed to that work, which is foundational to everything we do – educating future leaders, advancing cutting-edge research, and upholding the principles of freedom and democracy.”

Most Angelenos have experienced Paul R. Williams’ remarkable architectural legacy, whether we realized it or not. Proud that @fishermuseum is showcasing the work of this extraordinary USC alum whose influence extends far beyond LA. nytimes.com/2026/08/26/art…

Grateful to @jimmyiovine_ and @drdre for their friendship and visionary support of @USCIovineYoung. IYA was founded 13 years ago around ideas that felt radical at the time: that the biggest challenges require transdisciplinary thinking, that students learn by tackling real-world projects, and that industry should be part of the educational experience, not something waiting after graduation. Today, those ideas point toward the future of higher education.

Wise words from @FrankBruni. My only clarification would be that you don't need to choose between the humanities and other subjects. Study both.

Excited to see USC researchers participating in this ambitious cross-sector effort to accelerate scientific discovery with AI. Let's go!
