  • Annual Address to the USC Faculty, February 13-14, 2013
    Annual Address to the USC Faculty February 13 & 14, 2013 C. L. Max Nikias President This annual address is, for me, an opportunity to enjoy time with longtime colleagues and friends in the professoriate. This year, it is a special opportunity to report to you on the progress being made by this ambitious academic community. For the faculty of USC, this continues to be our moment. It is in times such as these—moments of disruption—in which we see the most promising developments. These are moments of new light, a re-illumination of the human mind and spirit. In the Late Middle Ages, Petrarch ignited one moment of re-illumination, when the first wave of humanists took accumulated wisdom and the classics, and used them to spark a new intellectual encounter, and to brighten our understanding of humanity’s place in the cosmos. Francis Bacon would later fashion modern notions of rigorous, empirical inquiry. In his monumental book the Novum Organum, human inquiry smashed through ancient barriers, opening vast new worlds for exploration. Our own world is opening up, in the 21st century, in no less dramatic ways. Within our academic community, among you, we have those who live in the spirit of Petrarch, in the lineage of Francis Bacon, here now within this latest age of discovery. This is the Age of the Pacific—and yes, this is the century of biology and medicine. In this era, human inquiry is being informed by the extraordinary convergence of Pacific Rim cultures, by the rich blending of a new world into the existing one.
