Multigenerational, Multidisciplinary, Multicultural Since its founding in 1978, the USC Emeriti Center has served the university’s retirees and pre-retirees in living healthy and purposeful lives by providing essential information, resources, services, advocacy, privileges, and support. Part of the Office of the Provost, the Emeriti Center offers most of its services and programs free of charge and open to campus and community. We are an inclusive community celebrating our diverse population and offer many intergenerational learning programs throughout the year.
