In an effort to provide a multi-cultural and enriched educational experience for student-athletes, Â the athletic department will begin holding occasional field trips where student-athletes will have an opportunity to visit historical sites and landmarks around the Los Angeles area.
On Wednesday, eight student-athletes and three staff members traveled to the Huntington Library and Gardens, where they were given a private tour of the museum's facility and outdoor gardens.
The students were guided by Bill Deverell, a USC professor and director of the Huntington USC Institute on California and the West. The group received a behind-the-scenes look at the library's exhibits, which held materials such as the original Gutenberg Bible and a draft of the U.S. Constitution's 13th Amendment.
               Eight USC student-athletes took an educational study break on Wednesday.
