We have noticed a high volume of prints being sent to the HP 1300 and Oce in Room 21 during mornings when there are studio critiques. If you are printing in the 24 hour lab the night before or morning of a schedule studio critique, please plan accordingly and send your print jobs earlier rather than later (i.e. before 5am for an 8am critique).
Keep in mind, there are no guarantees that any prints submitted to the 24 hour print lab will be completed during high-traffic periods due to the sheer volume in the que, exhausted paper and toner, or printer malfunction. Please be mindful of these possible issues as you budget your time for project completion.

This week we are featuring the work, process and content of another interior design studio, similar to a previous newsletter that highlighted work completed in IDES210. I believe it is good to keep everyone informed of the great work that is occurring in the studios.
The particular studio highlighted this week is IDES350. This studio course is for third year interior design students. Often taught by two faculty members, both sections this year are developing projects that foster healthy communities, although in different ways. Miyoung Hong’s section is doing an ambulatory center that will be addressed in a future update. Mark Hinchman’s section is doing a community-based performance center.

I just returned this week for the National ASLA Meeting in Philadelphia. It is always a good experience to attend national meetings of professional organizations because it gives you some insight into where the profession is thinking in relation to the different currents of influence in this day and age. Some of these currents include pragmatic execution information, the governance and maintenance of the profession, celebration of excellence in design, thought provoking issues facing the profession and insight into the culture and community of professional practice. I attended one panel discussion titled “1960’s and 1970’s Plazas: Restore, Remodel, Redo?” where different landscape architects discussed the political and professional challenges they faced when asked to address this question at Peavey Plaza in Minneapolis, City Hall Plaza in Boston and Love Plaza in Philadelphia.

COMMUNITY AND REGIONAL PLANNING
|
Tracy Lungrin, associate director student experience, with UNL’s Career Services, met with students in the CRPL 900 “Professional Planning Practice” course to discuss résumé design, cover letter content, job searching strategies and job interviews for students and graduates seeking positions specifically in planning. Lungrin explained the range of services available through UNL’s Career Services and also engaged the Community and Regional Planning students in a lively discussion on many aspects of job searching that led to a better understanding among the students of how one should think about seeking employment in the early stages of one’s career.
