All USC students are invited to attend any or all meetings of the Interfaith Council, to learn and share about their faith traditions from each other. The Interfaith Council sponsors events such as weekly dinners & dialogue, the Prayer Reading-Burning ceremony, and SOULJOURN trips to visit faith communities in LA.

SKY at USC: Breathwork and Meditation Club is a student organization of – SKY Campus Happiness – offered on campuses across the nation. We are under the International Association for Human Values, which partners with the Art of Living Foundation. Programs are offered on and off campus designed to bring students from any background, together to decrease stress, anxiety and loneliness, while increasing optimism, social connectedness and empathy. This is done by providing tools and creating awareness on the value of self-care and the mind-body connection. When people come together and get rid of what does not serve us, we can move together to be agents of change from a space of clarity and purpose.
Sky at USC is the student outreach of the Art of Living Foundation and offers programs on and off campus designed to assist students of any religious background to enhance their spiritual, emotional, and physical wellbeing through meditation and other spiritual practices as taught by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, founder.
