The infographic-rich document can be seen below.</p> <p> <em>&ldquo;GSAPP 2012 - 6 Months After Graduation&rdquo; is an attempt to capture the state of our class in our first year of post-gradschool life. Did we finally find a job? Did we move to another city? Another country? How many hours a week are we working? How much are we making? What software are we finally using? These are some of the questions this survey tries to answer, and in doing so, it may also serve as a snapshot of the architectural profession itself, how it treats its newest members and how it is doing in this fragile economy.</em></p> <p> <em>The survey was made up of 17 questions and was voluntarily responded by 63 graduates from the Masters of Architecture program at the Graduate School of Architecture Planning and Preservation at Columbia University.</em></p> http://archinect.com/news/article/60522948/we-re-giving-away-a-3-day-pass-to-greenbuild-winner-will-be-selected-later-today We're giving away a 3-day pass to Greenbuild!
