Architecture Dean’s Chair Honors Harry and Della MacDonald
To honor a long history of giving, the USC School of Architecture has established the Harry and Della MacDonald Dean’s Chair in Architec-ture. The endowed chair constitutes the school’s first and will help ensure that a highly qualified dean stands at the school’s helm in perpetuity.

Longtime Presidential Associates, the MacDonalds, in addition to their contributions to the School of Architecture, have supported the USC/Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center and Hospital, the University Libraries and the Peace Studies Program in the College of Letters, Arts and Sciences.
