Welcome back!
We have experienced some significant changes in the College over the break.
- You’ll undoubtedly notice the red fence around the Architecture Library wing – Phase One of our construction project is well underway and it couldn’t be more exciting! We are currently finalizing programming for Phase Two, envisioning the studios and other learning spaces we need to support next-generation learning and teaching in design and planning.
- I have accepted the position as UNL’s Executive Vice Chancellor, and in fact today is my first day! This means the College of Architecture will conduct a national search for a new permanent dean soon. In the meantime, I am confident that under the interim leadership of Dr. Sharon Kuska, the college will be in excellent hands and maintain the very positive momentum and trajectory we have built.
I will deeply miss serving as dean of this exceptional college and being a part of the fabric of such a tight-knit community. While I won’t see you on a daily basis, please know how proud I am of you and your educational trajectory and the potential you hold for making a positive difference in this world. You are surrounded with an amazing array of professionals who care deeply about you, the professions and the future.
Through the role I am assuming, I look forward to nurturing the academic mission of the university and creating an environment where all can thrive. I look forward to supporting you and the campus in this way.
Warm regards,
Kathy

We want to congratulate and wish Kathy Ankerson the very best on her new position as executive vice chancellor. We will certainly miss her as dean.

Welcome back! Thank you to the students, faculty, administrators and staff that made 2021 an excellent year in the Architecture Program. I especially want to extend my appreciation to the part-time faculty teaching in our program this spring. Most of these faculty are UNL alumni that bring a range of expertise into the classroom. I hope you will continue participating and observing the various ways of thinking, making and designing throughout the semester by attending Hyde lectures, lunchtime events and studio reviews.
As we progress into the semester, I look forward to observing and promoting our students and faculty inside and outside the classroom. Please feel free to contact me to say hello or schedule a meeting. Have a great first week.

Welcome back to a new year and a new semester! Unfortunately, we are still having to be flexible and patient while navigating the changing circumstances of COVID-19. I trust that we are all doing what we can to lead with the best intentions to keep ourselves, our peers, college and community safe and healthy. By now we know that adaptive and flexible attitudes, professional and pro-active communication and responsible mindsets are necessary to navigate during a pandemic learning environment. We also must accept that despite these conditions, we need to continue to positively push ourselves to achieve outcomes that elevate our skills, expand our knowledge and position our creative problem solving to propose inspiring design solutions.

Welcome back! I hope everyone got a good rest, did something fun and are now energized and ready to go in another new semester. First year students will have their first real design studio, second and third year students will build on the positive momentum built last semester and fourth year students will be able to cap off their studio experience. We are all really excited to work with you. All the landscape architecture studios will be in close proximity to each other this semester, so the faculty is planning to do some community landscape architecture pin-up sessions this semester, more on that later.
