Acheworks via The School of the Art Institute...
So, I got accpeted to Archeworks and school starts about the second week of September. We have an overnite orientation/retreat in Indiana before hand to figure out projects and stuff. I am really excited and looking forward to moving beyond the circle of art school, and "design-field people" that I've been surrounding myself with for the last 4 years. There should me an interesting mix of students...I do know that one student is a PhD in Religion...
It's time to get out and work with the rest of the world...although I would say working at Border's has put me in intouch with quite a variety...

bytheway: as graduation gifts I gave out a few "Architecture Sucks" t-shirts to my friends. I love wearing that shirt around Chicago...such venomous looks!

Especially if you happen to walk past one of those architecture tours downtown on a saturday or sunday morning. One docent actually stopped me and offered to let me join the tour for free if I agreed to keeping my mind open enough to changing my opinion. When I told her I was an architecture student at I.I.T. she asked why i was wearing the shirt then...I responded: "Cause it does sux! That's why I'm in school...to change it."
They havn't beaten the idealist out on me yet.
congratulations on your acceptance to archeworks. tell molly, stephanie, cara, eva and stanley hi for me. i am an archeworks alumnus who now attends sci-arc and am currently in the community outreach design/build program here. archeworks is a great place to learn a different side of design that is often ignored. good luck.
Congratulations, Pamela!
It's so cool to see Archeworks under the list of school blogs... somewhat of a surprise.:)
So, I regret to inform you that I'll be one of your classmates this coming year.
I guess I'll see ya the retreat in less than a week.
until then,

no regrets yet- we haven't even started school yet! I am in Houston right now visiting family and helping with the relief effort, bringing donations and stuff. See you next week.
