December 20, 2007 — The USC Viterbi School of Engineering will leave its mark on campus history in a new way this year. For the first time, two accomplished engineering seniors have won the title of “Mr. and Ms. USC” from the USC undergraduate student body’s exclusive Order of the Torch.

The students – Reed Doucette, a senior majoring in mechanical engineering, and Althea Lyman, a senior majoring in biomedical engineering – were selected from 12 members of the Order at the campus’ lively Conquest pep rally, held Nov. 29, two days before USC’s football victory over cross-town rival UCLA.
