here and special events noted in the column to the right. Attending the mini-Pecha Kucha by Council members and the graduating class at APDesign West on Thursday, 1200 - 1:00 pm, lunch provided, should be a top priority for all LARCP faculty and students. Please be there and ensure that students in your classes attend.
Assistant Professor Brent Chamberlain's Mid-Tenure Presentation will begin at 6:00 pm this Tuesday, September 15, in Seaton 306. This is a time adjustment to allow all faculty to be on campus for the presentation. Next week's presentations also will begin at 6:00 pm.
The landscape architecture Self-Evaluation Report and Support Materials for the re-accreditation visit is available in the KSOL LARCP Faculty>Academic Affairs folder.

Thank you for your valuable input in the process and special thanks to Anne Beamish, Jon Hunt, Howard Hahn and Lorn Clement for their valuable attention to the effort!
