A New Experience-Based Program Initiative
Based in the Dornsife Office of Experiential and Applied Learning under Associate Dean Tammara Anderson, the EXL Lab creates experience and maker-based programs and events for students, faculty, and staff in association with USC Departments, Offices and secondary schools associated with the University. Our programs enrich and deepen your academic experience and enhance your résumé and e-portfolio.

This past fall, the EXL Lab @ USC in partnership with the Office of Religious and Spiritual Life hosted the first program in the “TRANSFORMATION” series called Discover Your Gift: The Transformative Power of Gratitude in Action.
The course culminated with participants creating a project that spoke to the power of gratitude in their life as a force for inspiration, transformation, and community.

The Transformative Power of Gratitude in Action
Gratitude is a powerful, motivating force for personal purpose and lifetime fulfillment. It is by its nature inclusive; Gratitude never divides or separates; it includes, supports, and unites. It is the reason why we seek to be good, why we seek to use our gifts to create a fulfilling life, and why we choose to share those gifts with others so they may do the same.
This series provided an immersive, experiential, five-week journey exploring Gratitude in motion and action. Through select readings, conversations with authors, chefs, and teachers, journaling, and shared experience, students learned to activate the immense power of Gratitude in their personal and professional life.
This shared experience culminates in students creating a project that speaks to the power of Gratitude in their life as a force for inspiration, transformation, and community.
