    Student Activity


    This event is hosted by the USC Entertainment Technology Center and CS students are invited to participate.

    The Entertainment Technology Center @ USC's -Executive Coffee with- "series is designed to give students and executives the opportunity to share ideas and to network during this period of distance learning.

    It is a win-win. The students have a structured low-pressure discussion with a senior industry executive. The executive explores the perspective and ideas of students who have expressed an interest in a topic that the executive cares about.
