Work for the upcoming issue, 70:1 is ongoing. 69:2 – S,M,L,XL (October 2015) • The issue is printed and available. • DaS essay to be published online as a teaser. • S,M,L,XL photos to be posted online. 70:1 – Open (March 2016) • 131 total essays (86 SoD, 45 DaS) • AnnMarie Brennan and Saundra Weddle have agreed to help edit the SoD content of the issue. 70:2 – Open or other (October 2016) Given the incredible call for 70:1, we may decide to select content for two issues. Associate Editor, Design I have nominated Amy Kulper to continue as Associate Editor, Design for 2015-16. Associate Editor, Reviews I have nominated Ivan Rupnik as Associate Editor, Reviews for 2015-16.

Dr. Singley’s term ends in 2017 and will be fulfilled by Dr. Saundra Weddle. Michelangelo Sabatino has not been able to make the previous three meetings and decided to step down. His term ends in 2016 and he will not be replaced. Acceptance rates have been posted online. The call for theme proposals yielded thirty-two proposals. 4 Associate Editor, Design: Report The Design Committee welcomes two new members at this meeting: Tricia Stuth from The University of Tennessee College of Architecture and Design and co-founder and partner of the firm curb, and Mitchell Squire from the College of Design of Iowa State University. The cfp for issue 70:1, an open issue, produced a robust haul for the design committee with a total of 45 submissions for Design as Scholarship and Micro- Narratives combined. As this is a non-themed issue, the design committee will examine the submitted content, collectively decide upon a design framework, and solicit Guest Curators accordingly. (Typically, for themed issues, the design framework and Guest Curators are determined in concert with the Theme Editors.) Inspired by the succinctness of the language of the Review Committee’s call for submissions, I have re-written the charges for authors of Micro-Narratives and Guest Curators (as discussed in the last meeting), pending the approval of the Design Committee, and hope that this will streamline and simplify the submission of solicited and unsolicited design content. At the last meeting, I circulated the draft of a new Design Framework entitled, Discursive Images, among the members of the Design Committee. Based on their feedback, I have revised the text and upon their approval, we will include this new framework in the next issue. The aspiration for this new framework is to solicit drawings that instigate discourse from faculty and students of all of the ACSA member schools. This would generate design content for the website, allow us to select best faculty and student images for the print journal, and Aaron Sprecher will spearhead an effort to procure a grant for a traveling exhibition. Currently, the Design Committee is focusing its efforts on getting more design content onto the website and we continue to discuss options for having a more robust design presence there. 5 Associate Editor, Reviews: Report Ivan Rupnik, Associate Editor Report, Fall 2015 Working closely with Review Committee members Christina Contandriopolus and Eric Mumford, I have commissioned and completed nine reviews (three double reviews), included in 69:2 SMLXL, and three online reviews. I have also commissioned and am in the process of editing eight reviews for 70:1 and two for the web site. In addition, I have continued the work on a new review type, the expanded review, “what architects do”, with two of these reviews in production for 70:1. In preparation for an expanding reviews committee, I am working on a clearer set of protocols for the review production process.
