2. Preserve and Advance the Unique USC Student Experience
Maintain and advance what is unique about the USC student experience (leadership; community; pride; tradition; spirit; networking) through the strategic investment of fiscal and human resources in facilities and staff.
3. Invent the Future of Student Services
Deliver and coordinate excellent student service across the institution and taking the leadership role in coordinating student services to meet the needs of diverse learners in a technologically sophisticated academic environment while maintaining the personal touch, which currently characterizes our work.
4. Promote Local and Global Citizenship
Challenge students to be active in, and make contributions to, their local communities and to the world beyond in ways that make a positive impact on their neighborhoods and on the world-at-large. Model for our students ethical behaviors and conversations that support the spirit of this strategic initiative.

With an eye toward continued improvement of our work and to contribute to the university's body of knowledge about student learning/experiences, we must learn to base the strategically-important decisions we make as Student Affairs professionals on verifiable evidence.
