This session included tenured faculty members from the department of architecture and the department of landscape architecture. They shared common experiences about the collegial work environment, commitment to sustainability, and the aspiration that the school continue to be a place that nurtures its students and faculty members. Research as well as teaching are important activities to the school and integrating space needs rather than giving research space only the leftovers would be desired. Bringing closer connection to planning, public administration and art would be goal for future building. A&AA should continue to build community and foster interdisciplarity which is an important value for the school and its environment/culture.
