<p>I’m not surprised and was predicting that he’d teach at USC, given his son is a Trojan, he retired from MSFT and he just bought the Clippers. Ballmer may also have decided to leave Seattle for a warmer climate. I’m more surprised about Stanford, though I understand one of his other kids is a student there. I also wouldn’t be surprised if Ballmer made a transformative gift to USC, given his relationship with the university, one that appears to be strong and growing stronger. Ballmer is part of our Trojan family, and we truly appreciate, admire, and respect his remarkable achievements. I’m personally humbled, grateful and in awe of his support for USC.</p>
