maui, some of my favorite guys are at Penn State LA –  it has a direct connection to Ian McHargs Upenn era, and those guys have it going for them..I really do wonder about Penn State LA, which is HUGE, and this football thing..I should ask them..Has it hurt them? Why would LA be tied to this scandal, football, more than the documentary on Penn St…[Read more]

None of this matters anyway. The world is going to end on December 21, 2012!! So forget everything else and go out there and live it up. Party like its 1999!..

The funniest part is that there are still students trying to become landscape architects or worse, they just started MLA programs. Try to avoid Penn State Univ at all cost.

Another step towards replacing hard copies of construction documents with interactive BIM holograms. They need to assimilate all media platforms to become experts in how mental conceptions are communicated visually.

live screen sharing/video conferencing?? world domination?

You might want to look at your university’s student organizations department, graduate school, and other on campus resources for funds available for student travel.. At FIU, we are given some money if we go to conferences and then present what we learned when we return.  Also, our state’s ASLA chapter gives us money each semester if we request…[Read more]

Jason:
 
I have no way of knowing this, but I think we both follow the same financial journalist sources, or close enough for me to concur with your salient point here. I think by now, and others who are frequenters to this website, that I am on the other side of the world and the financial and economic perspective from here is worth comparing.…[Read more]

Not quite, I’ve seen this same concept pushed by a wide array of financial journalists the last month or so, maybe not to the alarmist exetent, but echoing the lack of a substantial and sustained recovery. Earning are down and razor thin, and the real worry comes in the form of earnings projections that are on par with the worst of 2008.

Alumni and your university are your best bets – professionals have a hard enough time, but the well-networked student might get a dedicated alum or two to chip in; or just get a student ASLA award.

i get the feeling in the us it’s more than 15%…

Nice work – east coast firms have all been actively looking though a lot of us are skittish about adding staff but many already have; hope you’ve been hammering on the UGA network, there’s a lot of em out here.
Good luck.

That’s why I’m looking for work outside of the US…

Overall, it’s a very nice presentation. I agree with many of the suggestions others have posted here. I noticed several typos/grammar errors in your captions that should definitely be fixed before sending this out to potential employers.

I saw that one at the hotel Del C.  Its beautiful!  I was going to guess that this was on the island of Socotra, also a Yemeni island.  Its known for unusual flora and fauna.
 

Just remember that its not your fault.  These companies just have no need to hire right now.  I don’t even get rejection letters most of the time!  The country is not in building mode right now.  All I see under construction in my area are dollar stores and hospitals!

Meh.  It uses a limited range of sources.  Fox business?  Appears as fear-mongering to thwart the Obama re-election.  That said, there is a lot of evidence that things are not great, and will not be great for a long time.  But 50% unemployment?  I’ve had the opportunity to interact with a lot of people in other industries lately, and most of them…[Read more]

Thanks so much for the comment Rachel. I hadn’t thought to add captions describing the media for my individual project pages but thats a great idea, thanks!

yawn.

we can spend all day worrying about this or we can do something. seems rather unimportant on a day like today, especially here in colorado.

What do you guys make of this article? 
2013 Colapse

It’s difficult looking at your work and reading the text with the black bars in the way. I’d loose them or move them further away from the content. White space is your best friend. Yes, loose your pic and the palm trees on the cover, and just stick to one font type…

Keep the graphic design clean and simple and let your work stand out.

And are…[Read more]
