Consider Graduation with Leadership Distinction
Student Employees are defined as those who are enrolled at USC, claim full-time student status for employment tax purposes, and hold an on-campus employment position with a campus department. Students performing in these roles are doing work that is in the public interest. This includes federal work-study students who are employed on the USC campus.
Student Emoloyees may be eligible to earn Graduation with Leadership Distinction, wherein they demonstrate extensive, purposeful engagement beyond the classroom, understanding of course concepts in “real world” settings, and application of learning to make decisions and solve problems.
