October 10, 2013 Craig Rafferty, FAIA Chair, Jury of Fellows The American Institute of Architects 1735 New York Avenue, NW Washington, DC 2006-5292 RE: Timothy Hawk., AIA Object 3 – Led the Institute Dear Mr. Rafferty: I have the honor of sponsoring Timothy Hawk, AIA, for elevation to Fellowship in the American Institute of Architects for his leadership of the Institute. I have known Tim for over 15 years. When I think of Tim, his energy and passion for making the Institute better comes to mind. Through his leadership and tireless effort he has effected change for the better for our organization. Nationally as the Chair of the Interior Architecture Committee he changed the focus to collaboration and sharing of knowledge among interior architects and the interior design community to strengthen design. As a national model he led the efforts to establish a design center as the forum for AIA Columbus to promote local collaboration, knowledge and community outreach. He has shared this design center model to other mid-sized city chapters to help them invigorate their design communities. As a chapter leader, he increased member participation by 25% by refocusing the chapter on continuing education. He did this by restructured the educational programs around the Knowledge Communities to provide much needed sharing of specialized knowledge. His efforts have vastly increased the value provided to our members. In summary, Timothy Hawk has consistently exhibited the characteristics of national leadership and tireless contribution to our profession and to the long-term benefit of the profession, our clients and society. His vision, expertise and passion will be an important and irreplaceable asset to the College of Fellows and I strongly recommend Timothy for elevation to Fellow. Sincerely, John F.
