| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The University of Southern California claims over 200,000 living alumni, with the majority of those residing in California. Cinema greats like George Lucas and Will Ferrell were once students at USC, as well as astronaut Neil Armstrong. This book looks at the history of USC, located just two miles southwest of downtown Los Angeles. Traditions, leaders and the Romanesque architecture on USC's campus are also explored. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
