Taken from Wikipedia, "Tommy Trojan, officially known as the Trojan Shrine, is one of the most recognizable figures of school pride at the University of Southern California. The life-size bronze statue of a Trojan warrior sits in the center of campus and serves as a popular meeting spot, as well as a centerpiece for a number of campus events. It is the most popular unofficial mascot of the university."

From the guidebook on page 228, "California: a guide to the Golden State": Before the main entrance is an 8-foot statue of an armed Trojan warrior, the university's symbol, mounted on a 10 foot bedihstal, designed by Roger Nobel Turnham.
