JAE Call for Submissions: Discursive Images

Deadline: November 6, 2015

In a persistent quest to answer the question, “What do architects make?,” the JAE Design Committee has posited one possible answer: Discursive Images. Given the overwhelming response to our open call, the forthcoming issue, 70:1 (March 2016), will be dedicated exclusively to Design as Scholarship. We are soliciting images from both students and faculty at ACSA member schools to feature on our website and, for first-place winners, in the print issue.

The ACSA Board of Directors is proposing to extend the term of the President-Elect to two years, and to combine the position of Secretary and Treasurer.

The proposal must be approved by the ACSA membership as an amendment to the Bylaws by November 21, 2015.
