A Nobel Sustainability Trust Award goes to a Trojan. @priceschool.usc.edu's Geoff Boeing is leading global research to make cities healthier and more sustainable. 🌆
I will be the featured faculty spotlight today at the USC football game. My photo and short bio clips will be on the big screen during a time out in the third quarter. And Barbara and I will be guests in the president’s box. ✌️I will post photos.
Ditto; he taught my public finance class in graduate school. Doug’s a great teacher and a very nice person. And also very conservative.
Yes! Looking forward to that.
Welcome back to CA!
