16 ACADEMICS OF CUT AND PASTS Producing the Building Blocks of Life Architecture besides being one of the tough- est colleges is also one of the more caring because they want their students to be well-rounded and well-prepared. Not just for their major but for life in general. Dean Flint said that a curriculum schedule was designed for the students to be able to guide themselves. In that schedule they are shown what classes they should take and when they should take them. Then they are also given a large list of electives from which to choose from. These electives are designed to broaden the students knowledge both in life and in perspec- tive. Dean Flint said that sometimes through these elect ives the student realizes he does not want to continue in architecture. However these electives sometimes help to strengthen the students desire to continue to study in the college.

This architect student demon- strates the well-rounded educa- tion that the professors work towards ingraining into the stu- dents mind. He does prove that through the electives provided to him, he is an artist and a comedian. Note: Nice Ring. Photo by GREG BERG This particular student finds it hard enough to draw the fine, intricate designs having her concentration interrupted. The study of topography is found to be a vital concept when design- ing buildings. Note: Teardrop earring.

Photo by GREG BERG One of the most important and highly em- phasized subjects that the students are con- stantly reminded of are that they must create their own professional, moral, ethical and legal obligations. Other than being skilled in the building and drawing area they should just as importantly be able to gain the trust and respect of the client. And be able to give them their best work. The college does realize that while the students are working extensively on improving their architec- ture skills they might not be paying attention to their general requirements such as English and Math. A special program called the Tutoring Men- toring program was designed especially to cover those areas with the students. Older students, such as seniors, are the tutors and mentors. Since they have already passed through that stage in life then they are more able to help the younger students. Another interesting feature in the college is that the seniors are required to go through what they call a jury. It is in this activity that they show their final projects that mirror all that they have learned and acquired in their professional years. They present it to the jury, of professors, who then put the student through a series of questions and inquiries on their reasoning behind doing what they did. This helps the student learn how to defend his project and also how to be very precise. • Maria Altamirano ARCHITECTURE 17
