East Bay Trojan Network

The East Bay Trojan Network brings together USC alumni, parents and friends from the Bay Area to deepen their connection to the university and the Trojan Family. A board, led by co-chairs, works closely with a dedicated USCAA staff liaison to deliver high-impact career development experiences, host engaging events that celebrate Trojan pride and raise money for scholarships for local USC students.

Whether you’re looking to make valuable connections, volunteer your energy and expertise, support the next generation of Trojans, attend events or make new friends, the East Bay Trojan Network provides all of these opportunities and more — right in your own backyard.

We look forward to meeting you!

A Message From Your Co-Chairs

Hey, East Bay Trojans!

We’re Jim Anderegg and Stacey Weinberger, and we’re honored to serve as your East Bay Trojan Network co-chairs.

We’re excited to offer ongoing opportunities to connect and build meaningful relationships across the Trojan alumni community. Our goal is to host at least one event every month and help strengthen the East Bay Trojan Family. We’re already planning a happy hour in April, Saturday and Sunday Stroll hikes as the weather gets warmer, and wine flights in Lafayette.

We’ll be hosting our first organizing meeting in a couple of weeks, so feel free to reach out if you have ideas that fellow Trojans might enjoy!

Fight On!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the East Bay Trojan Network and do I need to become a member?

As a member of the USC Alumni Association, you’re already part of the Regional Trojan Networks! Regional Trojan Networks are groups of localized alumni leaders who build USC networks locally, and everyone is welcome to participate in the events and programs.  

I just moved to East Bay. How can I get information about what’s happening?

As an alum, you’ll automatically receive email information about upcoming events and opportunities to connect with East Bay Trojans! All you have to do is make sure your address is up-to-date in the FightOnline alumni portal.

What other regions have Trojan Networks?

In Spring 2026, the USC Alumni Association launched networks in the San Francisco Bay Area, Chicago, Colorado, Portland, New York, San Diego, Seattle and Washington, D.C. Additional networks will be launched in late 2026 in areas including Atlanta, Boston, Honolulu, Las Vegas, Miami, Texas, Philadelphia and Phoenix! If you’re on the road in one of those cities, be sure to tap in!

I want to be involved, but I don’t have time to commit to a leadership role. Are there other opportunities to volunteer?
