USC Alumni Association at a Glance, 2023-24

This year, as we celebrate the USC Alumni Association’s Centennial, we also look forward to kicking off our next 100 years of engaging alumni to advance our beloved university. With nearly 480,000 alumni across the globe, our Trojan Family is lifelong and worldwide, and one of USC’s most valuable assets.

From the beginning, we’ve been bringing Trojans together and strengthening their ties to each other and USC. Alumni of all ages and backgrounds have always played a key role in supporting USC’s innovation, scholarship and creativity. Our alumni have a long history of involvement in the university’s communities, initiatives and projects, and are committed to USC’s ongoing success, as well as President Carol L. Folt’s moonshots, which will shape USC’s future.

Our programs offer something for everyone, whether it’s supporting scholarships and research, mentoring students, building professional networks or creating opportunities for Trojans worldwide. We’re proud to report that in the past year, our domestic regional program engaged more volunteers (an increase of more than 66%) in more cities than ever before; that all four scholarship galas held by our multicultural alumni associations were sold out; and that 50,000+ alumni engaged with us on our FightOnline alumni portal. We also conducted our first all-alumni survey since 2015, the results of which will be announced and available on our website by mid-fall 2023.

These are just some of the high points that have led up to our centennial year. Read on for more highlights, including a special section “Celebrating a Century of the Trojan Family.”

Looking ahead, we hope all alumni will establish or deepen their connection to USC and the Trojan Family as we mark this significant milestone and embark on the second century of the USC Alumni Association.

Fight On!

Celebrating a Century of the Trojan Family

Founded in 1880, USC produced its first class of alumni in 1884. For the next four decades, several school-based associations were formed to serve our ever-growing alumni community. By 1923—the same year the the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum opened its doors—alumni leaders saw the need for a university-wide alumni association that would unite what would eventually become the Trojan Family.

With alumni now unified, the GAA sprang into action. Over the weekend of December 5-6, 1924, USC held its first Homecoming, with the Trojans trouncing the Syracuse Orangemen 16-0. In the 1920s, the GAA established USC’s first job placement office, the Bureau of Employment (today’s Career Center), to help students and alumni find jobs, and embarked on an ambitious campaign to raise funds for a new library and physical education building.

The Great Depression put a wrench in those latter plans, at least for the time being. Nevertheless, in 1930, the GAA raised money for a statue that would mark USC’s 50th anniversary. The Trojan Shrine (aka Tommy Trojan!) has proudly stood alongside Bovard Auditorium ever since, and was joined two years later by Doheny Memorial Library, completed in 1932. Once again, alumni leaders seized an opportunity by purchasing the private property between Doheny and Tommy and donating it to the university, unifying our campus with today’s Alumni Park.

On June 21, 1923, a group of alumni, volunteer leaders and USC administrators came together in what is today Founders Park to officially establish the General Alumni Association (GAA). Famed oil heir Edward L. Doheny Jr. (Class of 1916)—the future namesake of Doheny Memorial Library—was its first president, and within a year, the GAA had 4,800 members.

Guaranteeing the university's future also meant celebrating and honoring those who would shape it. In 1932, the GAA established the Asa V. Call Alumni Achievement Award, thus kicking off our annual USC Alumni Awards tradition.

As USC kept growing, so did its alumni community. To better serve them, affinity organizations arrived, including the Half Century Club in 1949 (today’s Half Century Trojans).

Of course, there are no alumni without students, which may be one reason why, in 1952, the GAA launched a scholarship program, a commitment which has blossomed into millions of scholarship dollars for USC students every year.

Economist Thomas Nixon Carver (Class of 1891) received the first Asa V. Call Alumni Achievement Award.

As more women began seeking opportunities outside the home, Trojan women came together to form the university's first alumnae group—the Trojan League of Los Angeles—in 1958. This was followed by the establishment of the Alumnae Coordinating Council in 1961.

In the 1970s, two of USC’s most prominent affinity organizations were formed. Raúl Vargas, then executive director of USC’s Mexican American Programs, joined with eight alumni to form the Mexican American Alumni Association (today’s Latino Alumni Association) in 1973. Two years later, noted civil rights leader Rev. Dr. Thomas Kilgore Jr., who had helped organize the historic 1963 civil rights march on Washington, led the efforts to create the USC Ebonics Support Group, the precursor to the USC Black Alumni Association, in 1976.

That same year, while America celebrated her bicentennial, we were busy moving into the university’s first building and a state historic monument—the Widney Alumni House. This would be our home for the next 34 years.

In the 1980s and 90s, two new affinity organizations formed. In 1982, a dedicated group of alumni volunteers and students created the Asian Pacific American Support Group (today’s USC Asian Pacific Alumni Association) as an ancillary to USC’s Asian Pacific American Student Services. A decade later, a community of alumni, students, faculty and staff founded USC Lambda (today’s USC Lambda LGBTQ+ Alumni Association) in 1992, after two decades of courageous advocacy.

In 1998, we changed our name to the USC Alumni Association. Today, we engage alumni of all ages and backgrounds with a wide variety of programs and events, from professional networking mixers to social and sporting events to cultural outings.

Our annual events, like the USC Women’s Conference (first held in 2009) and the USC Alumni Day of SCervice (2012), bring together thousands of Trojans and friends.

In 2010, we bid goodbye to the Widney Alumni House to move into our new home, the Epstein Family Alumni Center, in the Ronald Tutor Campus Center.

When the pandemic hit in 2020, we quickly adapted to the “new normal” by expanding our online programming. Today, we offer both in-person and online events to Trojans worldwide.

Thanks to our alumni volunteers, university leaders and USC supporters, we have built a solid groundwork to “Fight On!” for the next 100 years!

In 2020, we re-launched our official alumni portal, FightOnline, letting alumni connect with fellow Trojans, update their profiles and more!
