TOP NOTCH TROJANS
USC’s employee-to-employee shoutout program
Top-Notch Trojans is USC’s faculty and staff shout-out program. It’s an opportunity to recognize exemplary Trojans who help make USC a special place to work. Know someone who excels in their role or lives out our Unifying Values? Let us know, and we’ll feature them on our USC Employee Gateway Facebook!
OUR TROJAN VETERANS
Are you an employee and a veteran or a member of the armed Services?
USC has continuously maintained close and strong bonds with the armed services, and we encourage veterans to designate their veteran status in Workday. For help, refer to the “Changing veteran status” guide under “Personal information” on the Workday Help site.
Here are some stories about colleagues who have served as radio officers, combat medics and even cooks for the Armed Forces.
