Is Architectural Education Broken? New Report Exposes Critical Gaps in Training and Practice

great quote today: "There’s no reason to fear falling off a platform that’s only a few inches above the ground." @TimBenzPGH

We are always grateful to @RealEstateBees for making these connections.

Thank you @RealEstateBees

Here is where we are as architects. The tribe has spoken. Moralizing about the planet doesn't matter when the island comes first. Thanks @FixrExperts https://t.co/p7ZrPJwuQx

Freelance Architecture—Space doesn't permit my initial reaction, but tools are useless if we don't understand how to use them and on what we're using them; most of life is filled with the mundane, and all hierarchy isn't bad. @rogue_architect @mattbaran https://t.co/FkhNW4yjXD

I should be sleeping, but after catching the end of Pretty in Pink for the 1,000th time, I have to listen to the soundtrack again. #80sMusic

One of the most underrated songs of the mid-80s. It's a true classic lyrically, too. Dream Academy - "Life In A Northern Town" (Official Music Video) https://t.co/O6hZCd7sou via @YouTube "..As the train rolled out of sight Bye-bye..."

Do you wonder why people hate their lives? Some work as "managers" in basement offices like this. Yes, design matters—and a little daylight helps, too.

When are two drummers not needed? @accuradio

I'm honored - please join us.

So exactly what flavor are Swedish fish?

...and as I turned to make my way back home, the snow turned into rain. What a storyteller.

Therefore, how can we judge the merit of an award offered by a small group of judges at a specific time, defined by the cultural values of the award gatekeepers at that point in time? Will we shame projects of today in a few decades for falling short of tomorrow's values?

To my original post, my point is being validated. Awards reflect a culture's current sensibilities, which are shifting. When the 1st Pritzker was awarded, the judges felt it was deserved. Now, we look back with critical eyes. How dare they? Thus, are the rules absolute? (no).

I'm not debating, but asking, how do we offer awards for architecture in the 21st century? Is anyone worthy? How high is the bar? Who is the "who" in who says? @stevemouzon @coolspacestv @JodyBrownArch @joshuamings @mwmoedinger @duodickinson https://t.co/lUGnupAFpt
