Please join us in congratulating our own, Dr. Dora Kingsley Vertenten, for recently receiving the Robert Biller Outstanding Faculty Award. A ceremony was held on June 2nd where Dr. Dora was honored and introduced by Dean Jack Knott and Vice Dean Juliet Musso.
Fun fact: Robert Biller was a former Executive VP, Provost, and Dean at USC. Dr. Dora was his student while pursuing her master’s degree not too long ago.

As the 21st century unfolds, strands and textures of society intersect in unexpected ways. Much of this occurs across booming urban populations — in America and around the world — giving rise to new challenges or further complicating those that have not been adequately solved.
For over 90 years, the USC Sol Price School of Public Policy earned public trust through path-breaking research and scholarship. We believe it is our ethical responsibility to continue serving our global community at the highest level of excellence.
