Faculty Council Roster
Elections are held each spring for a two-year term on the Council. We are always looking for strong and active contributing members with good ideas about how to strengthen faculty governance within USC Dornsife and work constructively with the college administration to further faculty interests, advance USC Dornsife within the university and improve USC Dornsife for everyone.
Officers
Voting is done by division: Humanities, Natural Sciences & Mathematics, Social Sciences, and Undergraduate Education. Per the DFC bylaws, the allotment of the 18 divisional representatives on the council is determined proportionately with the number of faculty within each division.
If you have an issue you want addressed by the Faculty Council, contact a representative in your division.
