Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost Joan Gabel, and Vice President for Human Resources Chris Byrd are pleased to announce that, on August 16, 2017 twenty-six senior faculty and administrative leaders will begin a year-long cohort-based professional development program as Fellows for the fourth year of USC's Pipeline for Academic Leaders (PAL) program. Chosen for their notable contributions to campus life, these Fellows, representing fourteen schools and colleges and eight academic and administrative divisions, were chosen from over 50 nominees presented by deans, vice presidents and other campus leaders.
The PAL program reflects President Harris Pastides’ abiding interest in leadership development in all areas of university life. The PAL Fellowship is a year-long invitation-only program for campus leaders who are ready to take their already considerable talents to the next level while addressing USC's capacity-building needs. Over the course of this academic year, PAL Fellows will participate in approximately 50 hours of targeted professional development activities.
