Frank Gehry Given Professor of Architecture Role at USC

Already having taught at Columbia and Yale, Frank Gehry can now add his alma mater to the list of schools where the student can call him “Prof.” The University of Southern California‘s School of Architecture has named Gehry the Judge Widney Professor of Architecture, a title which gets its name from the founder of the university and one of the people who helped develop Los Angeles into a major metropolis in the late 1800s. Gehry attended USC in the 1960s, receiving his undergraduate degree in architecture there in 1965.
