Our differences are assets to explore, not problems to confront. USC's extremely diverse student body is a strength and a source of pride. Our different backgrounds and points of view are essential to an open learning environment. M inority and international students at USC quickly find that there is no such thing as a majority on campus. The only group that makes up more than 50 percent of the population is males, and even that is changing.
T here are support services for nearly every group in the university.
Three of the largest are the Center for Black Cultural and Student Affairs , the Asian Pacific American Student Services Office and El Centro Chicano , which work as umbrella organizations for several more specific clubs. There are organizations for students from many different nations, support services for gay and lesbian students , and the non-denominational United University Church provides a meeting place for every faith on campus. Most student groups make a point of reaching out to the rest of campus through music, fairs and cultural events.
