University of Southern California (2010)

One of our frequent guest contributors, Sothy Eng, recently visited the University of Southern California and sent me some pictures. It looks like, in addition to getting most of the major USC landmarks, Sothy also worked in some of the school's newest architecture. First, we have the globe tower at the Von KleinSmid Center of International and Public Affairs, as described on the USC Wikipedia page...


Next are shots of two USC libraries and their respective surroundings, the Doheny Library...


...and the Leavey Library, with its adjacent Reflecting Pool and Martens Plaza...


This next photo appears to be of USC's new School of Cinematic Arts (here and here). You've probably heard the joke about how virtually everyone who waits on tables in L.A. restaurants wants to act in the movies. Actually, however, about 40% of them want to direct!


Finally, for you sports fans, we have the Tommy Trojan statue, the symbol of USC football and other athletic teams.
