    A School Contemporary

    By RoBBie

    I wish I could stay in school forever. I really do. Traveling from school to school, manipulating theory after theory, building after building. School is the True Essence of our profession. Having those late night critiques from your studio mates where all the bullshit is left at your spot. Sleeping on cardboard then using it for a model in the morning (that's for you seanie). Making the 4:30 am trip to Double D's for coffee. Coming up with horse names for your studio mates:

    Danny Do-little—Yeah God
    Johnny------------ Hung Like A Pony
    Victor ------------ At A Medium Pace
    Howie------------ aeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaa

    I forgot the others. Anyways studio is what it's all about. Within my school the studios are segregated. There are no mixed studios, only classes. So the only way to meet the younger students is to go out of our element and walk into their environment. You know hand them a beer, talk to them. A studio companion is a friend for life. We have all bled, cried and laughed with each other. Carry the legacy on.

    This essence hits me every semester. So once I get out of work from the library I am going to go upstairs and snap some picture of the students work from each year.

    Questions:
    Frampton or Fletcher?
    Do you remember your Boyfriends/Girlfriends phone number?

      The name for victor seems to be attached to the wrong person, I have seen him in studio and saw an over abundance of work on the table.110% all the way

      You are correct there House, there is an over abundance of work. he does work 100 and 10 percent. But it is at a medium pace
