Academic Senate
Resolution 01/02-02
Closure of the Health Clinic at UPC

Whereas closure of the University Park campus health clinic constitutes an effective reduction in accessibility to, and hence effective level of, service for the USC University Park community; and

Whereas the use of "USC" in USCNet" implies certain responsibilities to the USC community that may not be incumbent upon other health care providers; and

Whereas USCNet did not undertake appropriate consultation with either USC faculty or senior administration in planning its actions;

We resolve to refer to the Senate Environment Committee to report back to the Faculty Senate advising on what actions, if any, the Senate may reasonably undertake in light of USCNet’s decision to close its University Park health clinic in lieu of an alternative location in downtown Los Angeles.
