We discussed two potential initiatives: 1) the concept of a networking event that would connect the schools (program directors and professors) with potential studio jurors and adjunct instructors and 2) a structure for better connecting studio faculty to relevant local sites and design problems. In the future, it is hoped that the Civic Engagement Task Force would help organize the studio assignment match-making. Urban Design Workshop – Workforce Housing The BSA hosted a three-day design workshop that included two public presentations focused on workforce housing in Boston. The workshop aimed to stimulate discussion and encourage both public officials and the public, to be inspired by the proposals and by the aggregation of a new residential development might begin to contribute to a new mixed-use neighborhood. The overall goal of this workshop was to promote more expansive and innovative thinking about urban workforce housing. Four interdisciplinary design teams, led by Brian Healy AIA, Beth Whittaker AIA, Eric Howeler AIA, and a team organized by the Emerging Professionals Committee, proposed housing on adjacent parcels on a site on Dorchester Avenue in South Boston. This area was identified by the City as one of two of the Mayor’s housing development “priority zones.” The result of the workshop was a proposal for a new neighborhood that can help set priorities for new policy initiatives. Two events were organized in conjunction with the design workshop. The first, held on Monday, March 30, provided an overview of the workshop objectives as well as a panel discussion with national housing experts. At second event, held on Thursday, April 2, the four participating teams presented their design proposals. A follow-up meeting with key City staff is scheduled for May 8. Boston Living with Water The BSA, the Boston Harbor Association, City of Boston, and the Boston Redevelopment Authority, organized the Boston Living with Water competition, an international call for design solutions “envisioning a more resilient, more sustainable, and more beautiful Boston adapted for end-of-the- century climate conditions and rising sea levels.” The design teams participating in the two-stage competition have been hard at work since the announcement of the finalists on February 26 at BSA Space. Their work will be reviewed, and a winner will be announced, by Mayor Walsh, at the final jury on June 8. Designing Boston: Defining Innovation On April 6, Attorney Michael Ross moderated a diverse panel focused on the question: “What does innovative design mean for Boston architecture and for its architects?” Participants included developer Bryan Koop, architect Rob M. Rogers FAIA, landscape architect Shauna Gillies-Smith, and Boston 5 Redevelopment Authority (BRA) board member Ted Landsmark Assoc. AIA. The panelists discussed opportunities for innovative design in a 21st-century city and how new thinking about municipal processes, private development, and design practice will get us there. IDeAS: Innovative Design Alternatives Summit Ted Landsmark, Assoc. AIA, and the BRA, under Kairos Shen AIA’s leadership, have organized an ambitious two-day conference focused on Boston’s future. Scheduled for May 6 and 7, the IDeAS Summit is partly a thinly-veiled launch of the City’s much-anticipated Comprehensive Plan and partly an answer to the Mayor’s call for “design excellence.” The panel discussions will cover far-ranging topics including equity, affordability, public engagement, and design. Olympics 2024 A two-part discussion, led by David Manfredi and scheduled for May 4 and June 22, will examine the legacy possibilities pertaining to the bid for the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Summer Games. Manfredi will make the case the Olympics can be a powerful catalyst for dialogue, engagement, and planning initiatives related to infrastructure, mobility, housing, sustainability, resiliency, innovation, and renewed investment in the public realm. 2015 Rotch Scholarship On April 9, the Rotch Travelling Scholarship competition jury announced that the 2015 winner is Julie Kaufman.

    Busing in Boston: a research guide Moakley Archive and Institute www.suffolk.edu/moakley [email protected] Busing in Boston: a research guide Introduction The Moakley Archive and Institute at Suffolk University has many resources that illustrate the controversy surrounding school desegregation in Boston during the 1970s. Boston’s busing crisis was sparked in 1974 with the ruling of Judge Arthur Garrity in the case of Tallulah Morgan et al. v. James Hennigan et al. Garrity ruled that the Boston School Committee had “intentionally brought about and maintained racial segregation” in the Boston Public Schools and he implemented a plan that bused students to different schools to create racial balance. At the time of the ruling, Congressman John Joseph Moakley represented South Boston, one of the neighborhoods most directly affected by the busing plan. Research Guide Sections 1.

Board of Education of Topeka et al. (347 U.S. 483), which asserted that separate educational facilities for black and white students were inherently unequal, and school districts must integrate their public schools.
