Did Berkely get it’s accredidation back, I know around 2000 they were having some issues with accredidation… Pomona is unique in that the department of environmental design has a LA department, Architecture department, Urban Planning department, Graphic Arts, and a cutting edge sustainability program (John T Lyle Center), so you would be able to…[Read more]

You should take the time to visit Pomona and talk to some of their students and professors. I visited and almost went there in 2003, but I got into my hometown program (Minnesota) so I went there instead. Pomona seems like they are doing some great things.

Marc-

I worked from home for approximately 4 months 3-5 days/ week during my fall semester at CSU. I worked via a company laptop working over their remote server. The local office was 65 miles away and I didn’t own a car (still dont, actually). I completed a number of fairly large drawings for them on tight deadlines, admittedly, sometimes…[Read more]
