COLLEGE NEWS
We get it, this semester has changed for all of us – it isn’t what we desired or expected. Your routine has changed dramatically, and you are being asked to develop new ways of learning. Your passion for the field you are preparing for, your perseverance in this time, and breaking these last few weeks into a series of manageable tasks will successfully carry you through the end of the semester. I have confidence that this experience will develop your resilience and resourcefulness - both exceptional attributes in the design and planning professions!

Remember, if you are experiencing difficulties, reach out to your professor or your advisor. They have your success foremost in mind and realize that each of our students is facing a widely varying set of circumstances that provide challenges. We are in this together, even though we are physically separated!

LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE
Two weeks into the world of online education and all seems to be going well. It is definitely not the same as in-person education, but I have approached this as I do all things, from a designer’s perspective. I examined the context, developed a framework, considered communication strategies to explore the situation and worked hard to realize the potential of each of these in the generation of a solution that will address the problem.
