⭐️ Introducing: The Provost’s Faculty Spotlight. Each week, a standout member of the USC faculty will be featured for the excellence they bring to campus in an effort to bring awareness to the amazing caliber of our faculty.
I’m excited to announce Professor @drchristiangrose as the inaugural spotlight! Dr. Grose is a renowned Political Science and Public Policy professor and one of the most prolific social scientists we have here at USC. You may have recently seen him appear on various news channels — cable and print — such as CNN, The New York Times, the Orange County Register, and more discussing various facets of the recent election cycle. His extensive research and expertise in American politics has made him one of the most influential figures in California, and national, politics and policy. We are profoundly privileged to have him at USC.
We’re proud to report that a new phase in the USC Trees initiative is underway! The first of 250 new trees have been planted in West Adams, in partnership with @kycclaand @lacitysan.

Planting Trees in South LA | Milestone Reached for USC Urban Trees Initiative
Dozens of volunteers planted new trees in South Los Angeles, a culmination of years of research turned into action and a milestone for the USC Urban Trees Initiative. Founded by USC Dornsife Public Exchange, the initiative brought together city leaders, community groups and university researchers from environmental studies, landscape architecture, spatial sciences and more to determine which tree species to plant and where.
A total of 250 trees will be planted in South LA and University Park neighborhoods. This tree planting is in collaboration with the Koreatown Youth and Community Center and City of LA Sanitation and Environment.
