COLLEGE NEWS

My best wishes as you finish this fall semester. For the upcoming holiday, my wish for you is peace, joy (and rest). Regardless of your circumstance, the holidays can be stressful, and I encourage you to devote time to reading, relaxing and reconnecting. The gift of time, talent and/or treasure to those less fortunate is a wonderful way to refresh yourself. I look forward to seeing you in January with a renewed thirst for exploration and discovery!

Best- Kathy Ankerson

ARCHITECTURE

It was most gratifying to see the fantastic work of our students and faculty this past week during final reviews. The work generated a fascinating discussion on a wide-range of important topics relevant to architecture and the allied design fields. I hope you learned as much as I did from the insights of our guest reviewers of whom I wrote about in my last newsletter. Reviews are a time of sharing, learning and reflection, whereby we celebrate the milestones in education. One big takeaway for me is how important continual innovation is in the discipline. We move forward by questioning the normative and by thinking differently.

 

On behalf of the Architecture Program, I wish you all a safe and happy holiday!

LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE

As the semester comes to a conclusion and thoughts of the holiday season start to dancing in our heads, I hope everyone will have the opportunity to have some meaningful biophilic experiences (and I don’t mean just hanging out next to the artificial tree inside your house). The pursuit of design excellence requires one to spend a lot of time indoors, so it will be good for you all to recharge with a heavy dose of immersion into the natural environment. Next semester promises to be an exciting one. We will be having Billy Fleming coming as our Hyde Speaker to talk about the Green New Deal, three of our students will be off to London to see what that little island has to offer, Salvador Lindquist will be joining us as an adjunct faculty member, and we will be searching for a new full-time faculty member. This promises to be an exciting time. I wish you all the best of holiday tidings and look forward to an exciting new year. -Mark Hoistad
