A dramatic expansion of, and upgrade to, USC Gould's facilities is essential to accommodate programmatic enhancements as well as our growing number of students and faculty.
Building Fund
In 1990-91, when the current law building was expanded and renovated, USC Gould had 600 students. While our JD program remains the same size, our robust graduate and certificate programs have grown exponentially, resulting in a combined student body of 1,200 on-campus students.
A new building next to our existing building will provide four floors of state-of-the-art space for classrooms, seminars and clinics, as well as room for the student groups and offices.
Your gift will ensure we are able to move forward with this much-needed project.
