Congratulations to Jessica Canfield and Huston Gibson! The Provost and President have awarded them tenure at the university and will promote them to associate professor!
This cyber announcement doesn't replace our traditional celebration. It will be quite awhile before all of us are in the same place at the same time, so our celebration will be delayed.
Where can you see the work of
James Corner, Chris Reed and Michael Van Valkenburgh all in one place?
In the Chang Gallery in Seaton Hall. The Think Fast exhibit showcases and collectively deconstructs all stages of the conceptual design process, with sketches and built works by
student
s, early-career practitioners and well-established designers. Open 8 am - 5 pm each week day, except when meetings are scheduled in the gallery.
The APDesign Desk Design Task Force is providing students in each program with an opportunity to voice ideas about the new studio desks. Please encourage students to attend the landscape architecture desk design charrette on Monday, March 7 at 5:30 pm at APD West. It will be casual, fun, and the department is providing pizza.
