The USC School of Pharmacy values and welcomes students of diverse identities and backgrounds, and we recognize the breadth of experiences and challenges faced by students when transitioning into a new academic program. This series of sessions offers special programming for incoming students who identify as part of an underrepresented or minoritized group (e.g. Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), LGBTQ+, first-generation college, and low socioeconomic status, etc). Subsequent sensitivity training sessions open to the entire School of Pharmacy will be offered in September.
