The battle was launched in a pair of exhibitions, each presenting its own view of Chicago's architectural history. In one, 100 Years of Architecture in Chicago, Mies and his followers were presented as the legitimate and sole heir of the renown first Chicago School, a popularly held view that had the support and validation of respected historians such as Sigfried Giedion and Nicholas Pevsner. The other more catholic exhibition, Chicago Architects, sought to explode the exclusive view of the first exhibition to include many architects who had long been forgotten or deliberately excluded. This revisionist point of view was organized and presented by several disparate architects, soon to become known as the Chicago Seven, and documented in the exhibition's catalog written by Stuart Cohen.

    Revolt and Reform in Architecture's Academy: Columbia and Yale in the 1960s William Charles Richards IV Richmond, Virginia A.B., Wheaton College, 2004 M.A., University of Virginia, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art and Architectural history University of Virginia May 2010 Richard Wilson~"~ "~4 ~ Sheila Crane Elizabeth Meyer _____________ Dell Upton 11 @Copyright by William C. Richards IV All rights reserved May 2010 lll Abstract A critical reassessment of the scope and mission of architecture and planning education in the United States occurred between 1950 and 1970. In this period, a small but significant number of students and faculty at Columbia University and Yale University perceived design's dominant pedagogies to be outmoded and inflexible legacies of the Bauhaus and Beaux-Arts institutions. They identified campus expansion, race, and the "urban crisis" as the principle, if unexplored, concerns facing architectural practice by the late-1960s, which pedagogy and practice were loath to address. Through protests and curricular reform, students and faculty members ultimately founded an advocacy model for design practice, which engaged the contemporary and contextual issues that have become central to its academy today. Among urban universities, Columbia and Yale represented compelling cases of how urban history and architectural education intersected. The theory and practice of urban renewal took a specific form that students analyzed-first to replicate and then to critique. As urban violence peaked and riots transformed neighborhoods across the United States, it did not take long for even the most sheltered student to feel the effects.
