Associate Professor Eric J. Jenkins, as an AIA District of Columbia chapter board member, is organizing a two-part portfolio and résumé workshop. The fall session will be a “how to” of graphic layout and content with a spring session will be one-on-one “desk critiques” with an architect and student.  Students and recent graduates from the area schools of architecture are invited to attend these free workshops.

Associate Professor Adnan Morshed, PhD, will present two talks based on his forthcoming book, Impossible Heights: Skyscrapers, Flight, and the Master Builder (University of Minnesota Press, Fall 2014). The first is at the Wolfsonian-Florida International University in Miami Beach on Sept. 19, 2014 and the other at the Birkbeck, University of London, on Oct. 23, 2014. Professor Morshed will serve on the keynote panel at the Biennial Conference of the International Association for the Study of Traditional Environments, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Dec. 2014.
