What makes architecture school(s) unsuccessful??

(In terms of the function of the institution and facilities as an entity)

What makes it dis-functional?
What makes it antiquated?
What makes it lack-luster ?



This is a research question for studio project, if you can help please leave an answer. Also, if you are ok with leaving your firm, studio, or school's name, and your relationship to the firm, studio, or school. Detail is much appreciated. thanks

On the fence

A school that has a March program without a Barch program thus forceing its students to acquire an March makes a school less than it aught to be for the sake of appearances. Superficial status.

A year and a half into my MA and I would have to say studio professors who have never built or worked at a firm that actually builds. Lots of articles, book mentions theories and and proposals but no experience or understanding of what it takes to produce for an employer.

Okay, admittedly, my sarcastic comment deserved an equally as sarcastic response, but the poorly written, unresearched email was uncalled for.
