I'd like to explain why I've used this particular picture. As I've stated before, there are no free pictures that depict Geoffrey Cowan as a university professor at USC (while also Dean). The only picture available is this one, which was used in an LA Times article. Also, precisely because it is a picture from a newspaper article, it qualifies as fair use. I'll add the name of the newspaper in the picture description to be more thorough.Solera44 (talk) 17:23, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
