To the LARCP students:
As we wrap up the 2015-2016 academic year, I want to thank you for . . .
- your patience and resilience in moving to APDWest this year;
- the creativity and critical thinking you applied to your coursework; and,
- your enthusiasm for planning and landscape architecture.
I wish you a wonderful summer with the right mix of relaxation and exploration to ensure that you come back refreshed in the fall! Please watch for the Canvas LARCP iNSTRUCTIONS course with all of the details about beginning of the semester activities.
Best wishes to our graduating class of 2016! We are proud of the work you have done and are excited to see you launch your careers.
Take care all,
Stephanie
