USC Division of Biokinesiology and Physical Therapy

It is with great excitement that we introduce the USC PT/BKN Black Alumni Association’s Vision and Mission Statements. As alumni, we share in the legacy of PT excellence, and we hope to continue in this vein with enlightened outreach, programming and community engagement to encourage underrepresented people of African descent before, during and after commencement.

From Sept. 23 to Oct. 28, we ran a weekly Instagram series titled Welcome Wednesdays, where we showcased USC BKNPT community members who have been made to feel welcome here at the USC Division of Biokinesiology and Physical Therapy, no matter their sexual orientation, gender identity, political affiliations, etc. See all the posts here.
