Institutional Support and Commitment to Continuous Improvement I.1. Identity & Self Assessment I.1.1. History Mission The APR must include the following: • A brief history of the institution, its mission, founding principles, and a description of how that is expressed in the context of 21st century higher education • A brief history of the program, its mission, founding principles, and a description of how that is expressed in the context of the 21st century architecture education. • A description of the activities and initiatives that demonstrate the program’s benefit to the institution through discovery, teaching, engagement, and service. Conversely, the APR should also include a description of the benefits derived to the program from the institutional setting. • A description of the program and how its course of study encourages the holistic development of young professionals through both liberal arts and practicum-based learning. Institution The University of Kentucky was established by the state of Kentucky in 1865 as the Agricultural and Mechanical College of the Kentucky University. “Since its inception, the University of Kentucky has been more than a public research University; we have been home to the state’s greatest aspirations – an idea of a new and brighter tomorrow. We are a community of global scholars committed to academic excellence, collaborative scientific discovery, and undergraduate and graduate student engagement. With over 200 academic programs across 16 colleges and professional schools, our worldwide renowned faculty take a multi-disciplinary approach to serving our community and are the foundation of progress and purpose for our Commonwealth. We are a home away from home for a diverse community of students from all 120 Kentucky counties, each of the 50 states, and 115 countries worldwide. Each student is an important part of the intellectual fabric and community that comprise the University of Kentucky. We are an economic engine recruiting innovative, global industries; educating and populating a 21st century workforce; and developing academic research into entrepreneurial enterprises and high paying jobs that position Kentucky to compete in a 21st century global economy. The University of Kentucky emphasizes our outreach and service mission while balancing the preparation of the next generation for a world that never stops evolving.” Eli Capilouto, the president of the University of Kentucky since July 2011. Mission The University of Kentucky is a public, land grant university dedicated to improving people’s lives through excellence in education, research and creative work, service, and health care. As Kentucky’s flagship institution, the University plays a critical leadership role by promoting diversity, inclusion, economic development, and human well-being. Vision The University of Kentucky will be one of the nation’s 20 best public research universities. Values – The University of Kentucky is guided by its core values: Integrity Excellence Mutual Respect and Human Dignity Diversity and Inclusion Academic Freedom Shared Governance Work-life Sensitivity Civic Engagement Social Responsibility 6 University of Kentucky Architecture Program Report September 2012 The Board of Trustees has the full legal authority and responsibility for the governance of the University. The President is the chief executive officer. The President and Central Administration are responsible for University wide policies and planning as well as coordination of academic, student, business and administrative service. The provost is responsible for the operations of the academic programs, established University policies, procedures, and has broad discretion in planning and day to day decisions. Since the last visit, a new university president was named. Dr. Eli Capilouto, the previous provost of the University of Alabama-Birmingham, became the twelfth president of the University of Kentucky in 2011. Also since the last visit, the previous provost, in 2012, accepted the job to become the president of the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. Currently, the Dean of Pharmacy, Dr. Timothy Tracy is serving as the Interim Provost. One of the first actions taken by the President was to commission an outside study to address four fundamental questions confronting the university. The preliminary report can be reviewed at www.uky.edu/ President/HuronReports.edu. The finding of this report will form the foundation of a new strategic plan. As is the case at the college and school level, the active and engaged debates that are taking place within the academic community will energize and refresh the university community. We as an academic unit are participating, at the university level, as these dialogues move forward. Each year the Office of the Vice President for Institutional Effectiveness publishes the UK Factbook. The 2011-2012 edition, as well as previous editions, is located at http://www.uky.edu/IRPE/fast_facts/fact_ booklet.html. This document provides a statistical profile of the university. College The College of Design was established in January 2003, incorporating the School of Interior Design, the Department of Historic Preservation and the School of Architecture. The College of Architecture had its origins in the 1920’s as an architectural option in the College of Engineering. Professor Charles P. Graves joined the Civil Engineering faculty in 1958 charged with converting the architectural option to a professional degree program. The curriculum changed from a mathematical and applied science concentration to courses in the arts, science, humanities, architectural design and history. In 1960, the Board of Trustees established the Department of Architecture in the College of Engineering, with the understanding that the department would be granted autonomy upon accreditation. The first class to complete the new professional degree program graduated in 1964. The School of Architecture was established in 1965 with Professor Graves as Dean. That year, the program also received its first accreditation from the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB). The School became a college in 1967. As the College’s enrollment increased it moved to temporary off-campus quarters in the Reynolds Building, an old tobacco warehouse. In 1965, the program moved to the physics building, Pence Hall. By 1971 the College

Jo HAA 98br: Advanced Tutorial: Methods of Architectural History December! 15, 2014 Instructor: David Sadighian !1 Boston City Hall: Conception and Reception in the Era of Civil Defense ! . there is no such thing as a merely given, or simply available, starting point: beginnings have to be made for each project in such a way as to enable what follows from them. The idea of beginning, indeed the act of beginning, necessarily involves an act of delimitation by which something is cut out of a great mass of material, separated from the mass, and made to stand for, as well as be, a starting point, a beginning. ! - Edward Said, Orientalism Introduction Boston City Hall has been equally described as beautiful and monstrous, a fortress, a bunker, intimidating, dignified, a waste of space, and the greatest use of space, in a passionate and polarizing struggle of reception from its design in 1962, to its current state in 2014. Its conception is often attributed to human actors—the architects Kallmann McKinnell & Knowles and the competition jury that chose their design—and the intentions of character and resolve, articulated governance, and openness to civic life that they proposed on paper long before any building went up. These intentions have nearly always been described as abstract ideals removed from any particular political situation that may necessitate such “character and resolve.” There was not a word mentioned, either in the commission or in the architects’ statements, of the political nature of the civic project, nor the national and international tensions of the time—non-human actors that inevitably had a hand in the making of Boston City Hall, but have rarely been addressed.

  • 6. Regionalism and Beton Brut Around Late Le Corbusier
    REGIONALISM + BRUTALISM AROUND LATE LE CORBUSIER REYNER BANHAM THE NEW BRUTALISM 1966 It was, in the beginning, a term of communist abuse, and it was intended to signify the normal vocabulary of Modern Architecture - at roofs, glass, exposed structure - considered as morally reprehensible deviations from “e New Humanism,” a phrase which means something dierent in Marxist hands... REYNER BANHAM THE NEW BRUTALISM 1966 e term had no sooner got into public circulation than its meaning began to narrow. Among the non-Marxist grouping there was no particular unity of programme or intention, but there was a certain community of interests, a tendency to look toward Le Corbusier, and to be aware of something called Le Beton Brut... REYNER BANHAM THE NEW BRUTALISM 1966 Whatever has been said about honest use of materials, most modern buildings appear to be made of whitewash or patent glazing, even when they are made of concrete or steel. Hunstanton appears to be made of glass, brick, steel and concrete, and is in fact made of glass, brick, steel and concrete.

Introduction The Mid 20th Century Architecture in New Hampshire Context: 1945‐1975 was prepared by Lisa Mausolf, Preservation Consultant, under contract for the New Hampshire Department of Employment Security. The context was prepared as mitigation for the sale of the Employment Security building at 32 South Main Street in Concord. The modern curtain wall structure was designed by Manchester architects Koehler & Isaak in 1958. A colorful landmark on South Main Street, discussion of the architectural significance of the building draws commentary ranging from praise “as an excellent example of mid‐ century Modern architecture and ideals of space, form, and function”1 to derision, calling it one of the ugliest buildings in Concord. NH Department of Employment Security, 32 South Main Street, Concord (1958) The Mid 20th Century Architecture in New Hampshire Context was prepared in order to begin work on a framework to better understand the state’s modern architectural resources. The report focuses primarily on high‐style buildings, designed by architects, and excludes residential structures.

SIRMAN Abstract: During the 1960s and early 1970s, New England departed from architectural traditions and was in the vanguard of the most current (and controversial) style of these decades: Brutalism. While on its surface this style seems inimical to New England architecture, a confluence of economic, political, and social forces rendered it aptly suited to the region at this pivotal time. Concrete buildings served not only functional purposes but also as monuments that both reflected and shaped public perceptions of New England.

  • The Politics of Friends in Modern Architecture, 1949-1987”
    Title: “The politics of friends in modern architecture, 1949-1987” Name of candidate: Igea Santina Troiani, B. Arch, B. Built Env. Supervisor: Professor Jennifer Taylor This thesis was submitted as part of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Design, Queensland University of Technology in 2005 i Key words Architecture - modern architecture; History – modern architectural history, 1949-1987; Architects - Alison Smithson, Peter Smithson, Denise Scott Brown, Robert Venturi, Elia Zenghelis, Rem Koolhaas, Philosophy - Jacques Derrida, Politics of friendship; Subversive collaboration ii Abstract This thesis aims to reveal paradigms associated with the operation of Western architectural oligarchies. The research is an examination into “how” dominant architectural institutions and their figureheads are undermined through the subversive collaboration of younger, unrecognised architects. By appropriating theories found in Jacques Derrida’s writings in philosophy, the thesis interprets the evolution of post World War II polemical architectural thinking as a series of political friendships. In order to provide evidence, the thesis involves the rewriting of a portion of modern architectural history, 1949-1987. Modern architectural history is rewritten as a series of three friendship partnerships which have been selected because of their subversive reaction to their respective establishments. They are English architects, Alison Smithson and Peter Smithson; South African born architect and planner, Denise Scott Brown and North American architect, Robert Venturi; and Greek architect, Elia Zenghelis and Dutch architect, Rem Koolhaas. Crucial to the undermining of their respective enemies is the friends’ collaboration on subversive projects. These projects are built, unbuilt and literary. Warring publicly through the writing of seminal texts is a significant step towards undermining the dominance of their ideological opponents.

  • The Half-Life of Buildings
    The Half-Life of Buildings Are “great” buildings still great THETERM “instant classic” is often used to describe a new building, but how forty years later? long does architecture really last? Time can be cruel to bestselling authors (who today reads Thomas B. Costain or Grace Metalious?), hit movies (tried to watch “The Ten Commandments” lately?), and popular fashions (remember bell-bottom trousers and Nehru jackets?). Are build- ings immune? Perhaps the most graphic example of short-lived greatness currently in the news is Boston City Hall. In 1962, Boston held a national architectural competition for a new city hall, attracting 256 entries. Gerhard Kallmann, Michael McKinnell, WITOLDRYBCZYNSKI and Edward Knowles, all Columbia REVIEW 9 7 University professors, came out of prover- safe political ground in making this sug- bial nowhere to win.
