The USC policy website is the official home of all university policy. These policies have been established to create a safe and productive work and learning environment, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
If you are a faculty or staff employee, or a student, it is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with these policies and adhere to them. Because policy is modified from time to time, check the What's New link on a regular basis. Each policy includes contact information for specific policy-related questions.
