Annual Report 2005–2006

NORTH CAROLINA STATE UNIVERSITY

COLLEGE OF DESIGN Raleigh, North Carolina MISSION OF THE COLLEGE The College of Design community is devoted to excellence in scholarship, artisanship and professional preparation with the perspective of social and environmental responsibility. The college community is further dedicated to a tradition of individualized instruction in the design studio fostering research, creative activity and community engagement. College programs and curricula value the integrity of the individual by cultivating curiosity and cherish- ing the results of the creative effort.

[COMMUNITY] CHANGE ACHIEVEMENT.

LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE STUDENTS, A Studio Class Meets Outdoors MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN

Three traits are reflected in this report of the activities of the College of Design community. These traits mark the college with a special personality. It is the combination of these traits that stimulate the diversity of interests within the college and the equally diverse ways of developing design thought that results in the record of productive work that is chronicled in the following report.

COMMUNITY, CHANGE and ACHIEVEMENT together succinctly articulate the occurrences of the past academic year.

As a community of practitioners and scholars the College of Design is poised to make significant contributions to the body of knowl- edge defining the design domain. There is a significant transformation under way as new colleagues are joining the college while many long-time faculty members are retiring. This is causing an intense focus on the mission statement and expectations for the performance of junior faculty to be undertaken. It is invigorating to witness the recommitment to goals of the greater community by these new colleagues.

A COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY is most evident in the report that follows. The activities of students and faculty in the greater context of North Carolina society is represented in many student and faculty projects. It is evident in the scholarship of faculty as well as in the sponsored projects that come to us through cooperative extension activities. The number of collaborations among faculty of the college and with colleagues from other colleges on campus indicates a vital spirit. Community represents a com- mitment to the social responsibility the College of Design has as a public institution and the willingness of students and faculty to seek a manner of doing that builds relationships among a diverse constituency of partners and those in need of assistance.

CHANGE is the ever-present fuel of creativity within the college. During the past academic year the Prague Institute added signifi- cantly to the curricular experience. It provides the opportunity to students and faculty to experience another culture steeped in history. The joining of other colleges into the Prague Institute Initiative will strengthen the ability of this important resource to provide even more opportunities.

ARCHITECTURE STUDENT, Photographing Model The Merger of the Contemporary Art Museum of Raleigh into the college is the initial stage of an effort to expand outreach efforts regarding K-12 education experiences. It further enhances the activities of the college with regard to visiting scholars and artists, internship programs, faculty and student exhibits, and the development of new academic programs. During the past year a new academic path within the college, Design Studies, was approved as a nonstudio based curriculum with a mission to serve a greater population of the university as general education service courses as well as to provide the opportunity for advanced study of theory and philos- ophy related to the design domain of knowledge. The management of programs is also subject to continuing change as a balance is sought between the freedom of individuals to pursue entre- preneurial projects while order is maintained to assure the ability of the college to carry out the obligation to successfully meet the responsibilities of professional education. The change continually under way in the ways and means of the college is reflected in the physical facilities available to meet the expectations of a vital design community.

The Leazar Hall project is now complete. This newly renovated facility not only improves in- structional space and faculty offices but it also provides a major new office for the research and engagement activities of the college. This is the first time that the college has university- programmed space for such activities. The Leazar Hall project is making possible several moves within the Brooks Hall complex. A laboratory for material research has been identified as a joint project between Industrial Design and Architecture. A second laboratory for print and press activities has been identified as a project of Graphic Design. Both of these laboratories will require several years of development as new equipment and staff positions are sought through both state and private funds. The opportunity to reconsider the facilities available for seminars, Ph.D. student study carrels and meeting space, and administrative space has also provoked change in the Brooks Hall complex. This will foster improved access for students and visitors to the college while meeting needs that have been issues for more than two decades.

WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF A DESIGN EDUCATION, ACHIEVEMENT is regularly assessed. Assess- ment is an essential aspect of the creative process and it therefore constitutes a significant stage of the realization of ideas. The college community has never been more productive in the production of scholarship, the extent of projects in the community through cooperative extens- ion projects and related service-learning experiences, the involvement of faculty in the design professions, the advancement of new technologies in the study and practice of design, the realization of new curricular experiences, and the quality of education experiences for students. It is apparent that there is no willingness to compromise on matters of achievement. These high expectations for performance are matched by high ethical standards in the conduct of the affairs of the college. The list of achievements by the college community as a group and 5

CAM, downtown Raleigh ID PROFESSOR BONG-IL JIN, assists Glenwood Morris DESIGN FUNDAMENTALS, transitional trailers ART + DESIGN, exhibition the conduct of the affairs of the college. The list of achievements by the college community as a group and indi- vidually is impressive. Citations can be identified indicating excellence in student performance in competitions, the recognition of faculty professional work, the further recognition of the scholarship of students and faculty, and the recognition of individuals within the community with the highest awards for teaching within their respec- tive professional associations. If the aspiration of the college to be a center of influence among designers and design institutions is to be realized, it will be through the effects of the achievements of students, faculty and alumni. There is reason to be confident that our influence is growing nationally and internationally.

NEW PERSPECTIVES ON THE SERVICE ENVIRONMENT The College of Design community has been committed to incorporating societal need into ongoing course work at every level of the curriculum. From first-year design students to individuals pursuing doctoral studies, relevance and social responsibility are common themes. In this regard the College of Design can demonstrate national and international leadership. Service learning, though not identified with such terminology, is deeply ingrained in the culture of learning and scholarship among students and faculty members. The expectation for such involvement by the citizens of North Carolina has become so intense that college participation is not only sought out by interested parties from across the State, but now individuals from constituent universities within the UNC system seek the college to become partners in new centers for community outreach. This new perspective is a challenge to existing frameworks.

Within the university the College of Design is seeking a greater role in the development of general studies in design open to the entire university and to build a Design Studies program to elevate conceptual and theoretical discourse while building the design domain of knowledge. It will be necessary for the college to respond to an increasing demand for intellectual agility in the development of curricular patterns and community college relationships.

Greater emphasis on the scholarship of faculty members in research, sponsored programs and extension 7 activities is placing stress on the professional programs. There is a need for the college to compare teaching expectations with university peers and seek the means to respond appropriately.

The College of Design is well-known in the design community for its emphasis on the collaborative studio experience. Faculty and students continually strive to improve their design solutions through teamwork and networking. Several studios have engaged students and faculty in the community. The Downtown Design Studio and the Prague Institute rely heavily on their urban environments and draw on the expert resources around them to enhance the educational interaction for their students and clients. This broadening of our borders has come to be expected.

ALEX FORD and SARAH ENSMINGER, Hang it up Baby! Exhibition, Gallery of Art + Design BILOXI

From March 4th to the 10th, a group of 12 College of Design students participated in a self-initiated alternative spring break trip to Biloxi, Mississippi, to volunteer in the Gulf Coast relief effort. They worked with Architecture for Humanity through the Hands On USA organization. The Hands On USA facility was quite a community and run by an exceptional staff and more than 150 volunteers. The students camped outdoors at night and spent the work days on various build- ing sites de-molding, gutting and tearing out interiors, clearing out tree limbs , and/or re-roofing. They met several locals and the trip proved to be an eye-opening and reward- ing experience. Not only did half the group return to Biloxi this summer, they also hope to establish a tradition in a design and volunteer-oriented trip annually during spring holiday. The trip was organized by Devki Gharpure, a junior in architecture.

BELOW ARE SOME OF THE 2005–2006 HIGHLIGHTS.

Making the curriculum stronger and more relevant is a community effort. Several actions have come to fruition. The programmatic restructuring of the Ph.D. program to align focus areas that mirror Ph.D. faculty members’ expertise helped in raising the level of the program to an equal academic department with the five design disciplines in the college. 11

Other community-focused efforts include the lectures and academic critiques that bring different perspectives and insights to students (see visitors and frequent visitors listed on pages 32 and 33).

Neighborhood sponsors participated in supporting the annual Collection: Art to Wear fashion show co-produced by the colleges of Design and Textiles. This year ushered a change in the format by having a jury select which fashion lines would be included.

The School of Architecture was successfully reviewed by both the National Architectural Accreditation Board (NAAB) and the Graduate School at NC State simultaneously. Faculty, students and staff continue to be recognized for their achievements and fund-raising efforts remain at all-time high levels.

Several architecture students reached out beyond our immediate community to help Hurricane Katrina-ravaged Biloxi, Mississippi, during their spring break (above). Dean Malecha lent his architecture and design expertise as he volunteered to design the Chancellor’s residence and participated in a strategic plan for the master plan of campus.

Supporting academic programs, the IT staff secured and/or supported a second laser cutter (below), 10 computers dedicated to Render Farm, a high-definition camcorder for the Advanced Media Lab, eight Wacom Cintiq (below) interactive displays for Industrial Design students, and a new 36” plotter was added to Kamphoefner Hall giving students four units from which to print.

Art + Design started a new admissions process that requires a preliminary portfolio for all potential candidates.

Student Affairs participated in a pilot registration program and new student orientation with 95 percent of enrolled students completing early registration and attending New Student Orientation with their parents.

The Art + Design department’s major initiatives are to form a joint master’s program between departments, to continue to collaborate with the College of Textiles on the Seaboard Project and to further the discussions about collaborating with Regional Technology Strategies, Inc.

The Art + Design department has expanded university course offerings, teaching more than 200 at-large students and more than 100 art studies majors. Also, assessment measurements were put into place by establishing a junior-year showcase review and exhibition and implementing new senior studio criteria. Four new core courses for freshmen also were approved.

The Director of the School of Architecture’s major goal is to lead the School to true “school” status. In order to create the greater intellectual program and resource growth desired, the director suggested to grow the enrollment, faculty and resources, create an applied research laboratory, create post-professional degree programs and establish an Urban Design Center. Increasing

ARCHITECTURE STUDENT, shop laser cutter ID STUDENT, Wacom Cintiq interactive display the operating budget, filling unfilled faculty lines, creating additional faculty lines for current programs, increasing the tuition supplement and establishing a studio fee are all ideas for expanding the school’s financial resources.

The Graphic Design department incorporated a graduate symposium on Design and the Global/Local and established Practitioner’s Pulpits where groups of professionals hosted groups of students in their offices/studios.

In collaboration with the head of the college’s Faculty Senate, the committee structure was revamped to streamline member- ship and responsibilities.

DIVERSITY The College of Design had 43 international students and hosted three exchange students (one from Japan and two from Australia) during the academic year.

The Art + Design department continued its participation with Design Discovery Workshops at SeeSaw Studio in Durham, N.C. Art + Design provided a series of free design workshops for creative teens, specifically African American and other minority youth. This series serves as both recruitment and outreach.

The Assistant Dean for Student Affairs assumed responsibility for the College Diversity Committee. The $20,000 NC State Provost Diversity Grant matched funds for conference/lectures, provided 10 design camp scholarships and pilot mini movies. 13 Three diversity lectures were held including Courtney Sloane (nationally known interior designer), Guy Marshall (alumnus, industrial designer) and Michael Willis (internationally known architect).

The Student Affairs Office also conducted community outreach programs in Siler City and Nash County (N.C.) that reached 40 minority college-bound students with hands-on projects that exposed participants to design careers.

In keeping with the Plan for Diversity adopted by the School of Architecture during the 2004-2005 academic year, two female teaching fellows were hired for the 2005-2006 year. During the 2006-2007 year, two females and one African-American male were hired. This is the first time in the School of Architecture’s nearly 60-year history that an African American has held a full-time teaching position. The school director hopes to create additional positions to target hires that will help achieve their diversity goals. CHANGE

Although change is constant in the College of Design, the opportunity to acquire all of the square footage of a redesigned interior in Leazar Hall was worth all the substitute locations for faculty, staff and students during this academic year. The extra space allows the programs to enhance their laboratories and studio space, provides additional faculty and staff offices, and combines all research and extension programs in close proximity to each other.

Two full professors, Angelo Abbate and Vincent Foote, retired at the end of the school year. In addition to these retirements, the unexpected death of Bob Burns during the fall of 2005 left a void in three of five programs. Several searches were already under way during this academic year: landscape architecture chair, graphic design chair, two art and design professors, one landscape architecture professor and the director of the Center for Universal Design.

Enthusiasm surrounds the new hires, who were ready to begin in Fall 2006.

This is the first full year of operation for the Prague Institute, the Downtown Studio and the Master’s in Art + Design degree. During February, the College of Design merged with the Contemporary Art Museum. CAM will function as part of the extension and outreach efforts of the college, focusing on K-12 education.

After the first semester (Spring 2005) in Prague, the college doubled the amount of leased space to accommodate more instructional space. The transition of Prague into a year-round facility will lend itself to other colleges within the university having access to the property.

The addition of the Director of International Programs has increased the opportunities for design students to participate in study abroad programs other than Prague, Ghana and London that faculty members are involved in directly.

The Dean announced the restructuring of the extension and engagement functions and effective July 2006, there is a coordinator for the Inclusive Design Initiative that includes the Natural Learning Initiative, the Center for Universal Design and the Home Environments Design Initiative.

The Landscape Architecture department was headed by an interim chair for a year while the national search for a new chair was being conducted. The Graphic Design department also conducted a search for a new chair. The current chair stayed in office until the end of the academic year and will remain on the faculty. Both searches were successful and new department heads will begin in August 2006. 15

COMPACT PLAN

The College Compact Plan has provided the guiding structure for transformations under way in the college. Under this process, the college has revised its administrative structure, initiated the Downtown Studio, opened the Prague Institute, continued the development of new curricular offerings in Art + Design and Design Studies and expanded extension and engagement activities. Staff lines were redistributed to meet increasing technological needs while limiting staff support to faculty with the intention to improve instructional services. TRAVIS STEARNS, CAM Studio

The Dean announced the restructuring of the extension and engagement functions and effective July 2006, there is a coordinator for Initiative for Inclusive Design that includes the Natural Learning Initiative, the Center for Universal Design and the Home Environments Design Initiative.

Revamping of the organizational structure led to the Ph.D. program becoming an equal academic unit department with the other five disciplines in the college.

The tuition supplement for students in professional programs for Architecture and Graphic Design was ap- proved this year for implementation in 2006–07. This supplement is considered a first step in maintaining 17 standards of excellence and remaining competitive with peer institutions.

The School of Architecture successfully completed accreditation reviews with the Graduate School and the National Architectural Accreditation Board. The final report from NAAB is expected in July 2006. ACHIEVEMENT. EXTENSION Three large projects originated from Downtown Studio: An Urban Research Campus study by architecture students; the Kinston Waterfront NOW! landscape architecture studio and the Conceptual Plan for The Beach Road (Nags Head, N.C.) and its future development.

The Kinston Waterfront NOW! project conducted at the Downtown Design Studio through Spring 2006 and the studio’s partnership with the non-profit downtown revitalization organ- ization Pride of Kinston, Inc., was granted the Local Government Engagement Award during the university’s awards banquet in April.

LUMBEE HOUSE

During a March 15, 2006 visit to Pembroke, North Carolina, Dean Marvin Malecha, Professor Georgia Bizios, and Architectural Intern Katie Wakeford toured the prototype home, the first built product of the College of Design’s collaboration with the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina. The project is a part of the college’s Home Environments Design Initiative. During the first phase of the partnership with the Tribe, graduate students, under the direction on Professor Bizios, developed Lumbee home design guidelines and designed three prototype houses to be built for Lumbee Tribe members. The project now enters phases two and three which will focus on the design of a small house to be built by panelized construction and a set of neighborhood design guidelines.

LUMBEE HOUSE, Professor Bizios, Lumbee Tribal administrators, Dean Malecha, Ché and Michael Clark visit the first Lumbee Home Design site. PROJECTS UNDER WAY BY THE DESIGN EXTENSION GROUP INCLUDE: Water Quality Impacts of Alternative Build-out Scenarios for Brunswick County, in conjunction with the N.C. Cooperative Extension Service, is gathering information in how to best manage the growth and development patterns.

The Town of Seaboard project to develop and business plan and feasibility study for the proposed William Ivey Long Costume Museum and Production Facility, in conjunction with the College of Textiles, the N.C. Rural Center and the Town of Seaboard.

Boone Greenway River Park is a project supported by the Town of Boone for the Design Research Laboratory to create concept designs for an additional 12 (+/-) tract of land adjacent to current greenway trails.

Downtown Newland Clean Water Community Park in Avery County, N.C. is a project that the Design Research Laboratory will create concepts for stormwater runoff to protect the park area including the 10 acres of land recently purchased by the Town of Newland, and protect the Toe River that runs through the property.

The Town of Andrews in Cherokee County requested the Design Research Laboratory, in conjunction with N.C. Cooperative Extension, to conduct a series of community meetings to develop a participatory design process for creation of a master plan and design guidelines.

Developed several site plan alternatives for a Currituck County complex that includes a cooperative extension center and community center buildings. The site will also feature an arboretum with a bio-retention demonstration pond.

Town of Broadway revitalization project, Pamlico County Museum and Visitors Center, Town of Kitty Hawk (Dare County, N.C.), Georgetown Community (City of Jacksonville, N.C.), the Town of Sparta (Alleghany County), the Town of Wilkesboro (Wilkes County) and the Hugh Williamson Monument on the green of the 1767 Chowan County Courthouse were also projects handled by the Design Research and Extension group.

Continuing with its annual faculty-led design charrette, the Landscape Architecture department held a three-day charrette in Crossnore, N.C. The 30+ students and faculty spent three days developing designs and planning solutions to help the town better enhance its character. 19 The Home Environments Design Initiative, led by Georgia Bizios, conducted funded projects and initiated the Home of the Month project in collaboration with The News & Observer. This project includes an annual juried selection of at least 12 homes by registered architects working in North Carolina and features them in the Saturday, Home & Garden section of the newspaper with a commentary by faculty and/or graduate students in the School of Architecture. Not only does this feature familiarize the public with architecture, it gets the name of the College of Design in N.C.’s largest circulated newspaper each month.

Voluntary work was performed by industrial design students and faculty to conceptualize a new product utilizing microelectronic technology developed by Dennis Kekas of the NC State Computer Science Research Center.

The Industrial Design department participated in the NC Serious Games Initiative, an industry/legislative/academic initiative to promote learning through interactive media. DESIGN GUILD DINNER, annual award presentation

OUTREACH The College’s Office of External Relations serves alumni, design professionals, media, donors, allied industry and the community at large through educational opportunities and events, publications and communications, fundraising, student recruitment and other connections with design professionals.

This past year, alumni receptions and other events drew more than 1,000 people. The Design Guild held its ninth annual Design Guild Award Dinner at Exploris honoring Lawrence J. Wheeler, director of the North Carolina Museum of Art. (above) Receptions in Richmond, Boston and Los Angeles hosted alumni, friends and donors, honored faculty and student achievements. Booths and/or receptions represented the college at the national landscape architecture and the national and regional architecture conventions.

The Design Guild fall event gave members a hard-hat tour of the Leazar Hall renovation. The annual scholarship reception allowed donors to meet student recipients and tour design studio classrooms. A practitioners’ convocation and two interview day events connected design employers with future graduates. More than 300 people gathered in Raleigh to remember professor Bob Burns who died in a tragic car accident. Professor Burns was venerated among students and professionals alike for his dedication to teaching and his service to the profession of architecture. He was an integral part of the college’s life for 50 years. ALUMNUS RANDY CROXTON, conference speaker ARCHITECTURE ADVISORY BOARD, semi-annual meeting

In the area of professional relations, the External Relations office continued to offer professional education opportunities to alumni and professional designers. The conference, Designing Sustainable Cities drew regional and nationally known speakers, including an alumnus who is a leader in green architecture, an urban designer working with the Bring Back New Orleans Commission and a Chicago city commissioner implementing exemplary policies for the greening of the city. The conference reached more than 225 participants, including architects, landscape architects, government officials and planners interested in sustainable strategies for urban development.

Courses covering structures, design and materials and methods assisted architectural interns in preparing for license exams. 21 Assistance in offering continuing education credits to architects was provided by the External Relations office to the NC State University Solar Center, Civil Engineering department, McKimmon Professional Development, the College of Natural Resources, and the AIA Triangle section.

The School of Architecture’s advisory committee completed its first year of service and ended with a successful fundraising effort to complete an endowment in memory of Robert P. Burns, FAIA. After the renovation of the auditorium in Kamphoefner Hall is complete, it will be named the Robert Burns Auditorium—a fitting tribute. (above).

Involvement by the communications director in university committees has increased, as has her participation in several university initiatives such as the news.ncsu.edu publicity subcommittee. In addition to producing two Design Influence alumni magazines a year and an annual report, the director works closely with News Services and the NC State alumni magazine to garner publicity for events, research activities, student and alumni successes and human-interest features. This year, the Dean published two books that the communications director served as project manager with student designers as well as on other projects: a case study book on Monticello and a brochure for CAM. She also serves as a member of The Student Publication committee and will manage print production on Volume 32, due in the fall. CAITLIN SLOOP, BRIAN DODGE, KRISTEN FORD, donor of Olson fellowship (center) with first recipients

The communications director also maintains listservs for the students separated by curriculum and the faculty and staff. This enables her to release pertinent information in a timely basis. She also serves as college Web master and manages graphic design student interns to assist with college projects.

Fundraising for the College of Design had a very successful year. The college set an aggressive goal to raise $900,000 for the 2005-06 fiscal year and exceeded this goal by more than 17 percent raising more than $1.2 million. This surpassed last year’s total funds raised by more than $350,000.

Major gifts this year included:

$216,000 gift from Brian Dodge in memory of his wife, an alumnus of the College of Design, to fund the Wendy L. Olson Fellowship Enhancement Endowment for Public Service in Landscape Architecture

$200,000 from Eduardo Catalano in memory of Bob Burns to establish the Robert P. Burns Lectures and Seminars on Structural Innovations Endowment

$103,000+ from multiple donors to establish the Robert Burns Memorial Fund for Architecture, including significant pledges and contributions from members of the School of Architecture Advisory Board and the Design Guild Board

$75,000 from Curt Fentress to establish the School of Architecture Publications Endowment

$40,000 pledge from Adams Products in support of the design phase of the Concrete Masonry House that is part of the American Home project with the College of Natural Resources

BLOCKFEST

On Saturday, April 8, NC State’s School of Architecture completed another successful Blockfest in collab- oration with NCMA (National Concrete Masonry Association), the CCMA (Carolina Concrete Masonry Association) and Adams Products/Oldcastle. Students from ARC 232 Structure and Materials course competed in either a unit design competition or a dry stack competition. The winners of the unit design each receive a $500 scholarship and an all-expense paid trip to the NCMA Annual meeting to be held in late July in Victoria, Canada. The unit design competition developed at NC State is being expanded to serve as model for a nationwide program/competition. Unit design first place winners Juliane Kuminski + Geoffrey Thomas Barton (below), not pictured—Nicole Nury Alvarez, Darryl Stuart Jones and Bradley Maples.

The award was presented at a ceremony at the Sheraton Hotel of Dhaka, Bangladesh September 29, 2005. ASPIRATIONS The goals and strategic directions for the College of Design emerge from aspirations shared among a diverse constituency. They reflect the desire to lead nationally and internationally among design programs in each of the disciplines of the college. At the center of these aspirations is the desire to foster and nurture a learning environment that is focused on an individualized environment for teaching, scholarship, practice and research. The following aspirations will be undertaken over the next academic year.

There will be a greater focus on academic leadership within the college. The addition of two new academic administrators as well as the continuing change within the college requires that attention be given to the important role of academic leadership. Therefore, a specific effort will be undertaken to connect strategic and compact planning to a spirit of leadership that is open and inclusive while remaining service oriented to the students.

There will be a continuing development of new curricular options enhancing college professional options and expanding service to the university. The college community is moving forward to begin a program in Design Studies as an undergraduate curriculum. The initiation of this program has great potential as a service unit to the University as well as a home for individuals seeking a more theoretically based approach to design education prior to entering a professional path. Other options, at the graduate level, are being encouraged from new master’s degree programs to a professional doct-orate similar to the offerings of education and Veterinary medicine.

There will be participation by the college in the university discussion regarding the resolution of future of arts (fine and performing) degrees. The College of Design is prepared to assume a greater role on campus relating to the fine and performing arts. This is proposed as a significant aspect of the new Design Studies curriculum and it is a reflection of the desire by the college to assume a greater role on campus as it relates to the design and arts disciplines. Presently, the disposition of Art Studies, Music and Theater on the NC State Campus places the studies of these important areas at a disadvantage. The College of Design wishes to engage this discussion in collaboration with other constituencies on campus. There will be continuing development of facilities within the college as new space is acquired and existing space is renovated. The reconfiguration of space caused by the addition and renovation of spaces in the college will cause a significant challenge to leadership. It is important that this transformation be conducted in a balanced fashion allowing for an end result that will provide an improved environment for as broad a section of the college population as possible.

The Initiative for Inclusive Design and the related Center for Universal Design will be developed and an effort to expand outside sources of support will be undertaken. The important work of the Center for Universal Design, the Home Environments Design Initiative and the Natural Learning Initiative are being linked through the overarching Initiative for Inclusive Design. This will bring together faculty of shared interests who will enhance each other’s work through partnerships. In particular, given the legislative funding for Universal Design a specific strategy must be adopted that will leverage this support into a broad effort of state and private funds. A coordinator has been appointed to lead this effort.

The college will continue to place importance on creating a diverse community of design students, staff and faculty. The college must continue to place great emphasis on assuring that there will be a design community at NC State that is culturally diverse 31 reflecting the people and ideas of North Carolina.

There will be a peer study conducted regarding the balance of teaching, scholarship and service with a particular emphasis on faculty teaching loads. With the increasing expectations for scholarship, evidence of practice and involvement in service learning and extension projects, it is apparent that teaching loads do not reflect the aspirations of the college. A cursory review of peer institutions indicates that teach-ing loads are greater in the College of Design. Before any action can be taken on this possibility a more careful study must be undertaken.

These aspirations have a quality about them that is straightforward so that work to address them may begin immediately. Each of these aspirations also provides the seed for far-reaching discussion about the future of the college. It is in this spirit that the Annual Report for the 2005–2006 academic year is respectfully submitted.

MARVIN J. MALECHA, FAIA VISITORS

Many professionals, scholars and practicing designers share their expertise with students at the college by teaching seminars or design stu- dios. Others serve as critics for reviews, panelists, lecturers or hosts for field trips. The contribution of outside professionals adds great value to the student’s education experience.
