For America's 250th, We Created Commemorative Stamps of Trojan Builders - USC Viterbi | School of Engineering

In honor of America’s 250th birthday, the U.S. Postal Service announced a new series of commemorative stamps, celebrating American icons from Mister Rogers to Barbie to Alexander Hamilton.

Even Ralph Lauren got in on the action. Conspicuously missing, though?

USC Trojans.

So, in honor of America’s semiquincentennial — and the recent naming of the USC Stevens School of Computing and Artificial Intelligence, a new school inside the USC Viterbi School of Engineering — we created our own commemorative stamp series, celebrating some of the USC faculty, alumni, and researchers whose work helped build the modern computing world.
