Our 2nd Quarter Board Meeting took place on July 13, 2019 at the offi ces of Fong & Chan Architects in San Francisco, CA. A huge thank you to Dennis Dong for making the arrangements for our Board Members to have a beautiful space to hold our meeting. The offi ce of Fong & Chan was breath-taking, the elegance of its conference room and their state of the art work spaces lent itself for the perfect setting to gather and discuss all the topics on our packed agenda. What was real neat was checking out the offi ce walls covered with SARA awards proudly displayed for all to see. Jason Wu and Taihui Li graciously assisted us during our meeting and took time out of their Saturday morning to make sure everything ran smoothly. It was great to see a lot of the familiar faces, but we certainly did miss those who could not attend. The SARA National website has advanced and Doug Joyce, FARA shared with us an incredible teaser of what is in store. Duane Baker is spear-heading membership & social media in full force and we are eager to see the immense growth that will occur. Our 63rd Annual Conference & Design Awards are going to be a hit, we are all excited and have marked the dates in our calendars. Be sure to register early to secure your spot at our annual celebration. All information can be found on our website https://www.sara-national.org/ . After our meeting, a few of us hit the town to see the sights San Francisco has to off er. We made stops at Pier 39, Fisherman's Wharf, Buena Vista Coff ee Shop, Alamo Park, saw the famous Painted Ladies, the most crooked street in San Fran, Union Square and more. We are in preparation for our 3rd Quarter Board Meeting, which will be taking place in Chicago, IL on Saturday, November 2, 2019 (Our Annual Assembly to follow). We are all looking forward to the direction in which SARA is traveling on, we've been lucky to have so many on our National Board who truly care and want to see SARA reach new heights. It was a marvelous weekend and sharing special moments with everyone just confi rms how special SARA is. 4 Society of American Registered Architects SARAscope 2019 | Volume 9 | Issue 2 Thank you to our hosts, Fong and Chan Architects SARAscope 2019 | Volume 9 | Issue 2 Society of American Registered Architects 5 ATAS Announces Project of the Year Award Winners Allentown, PA | May 29, 2019 ATAS International, Inc.

  • Honorary Membership Nomination Narrative Nominee: Carol Ross Barney, FAIA Nominee's Address: Ross Barney Architects, 1
    Honorary Membership Nomination Narrative Nominee: Carol Ross Barney, FAIA Nominee’s Address: Ross Barney Architects, 10 West Hubbard Street City / State / Zip: Chicago, Illinois 60654 Phone: 312‐897‐0600 Nominator: Terry Warriner Ryan, FASLA Carol Ross Barney, FAIA, has been in the vanguard of civic space design since founding Ross Barney Architects in 1981. With a career that spans over 40 years, Carol has made significant contributions to the built environment, the profession, and architectural education. As an architect, urbanist, mentor, and educator, she has relentlessly advocated that excellent design is a right, not a privilege. Her body of work represents this ethos and occupies a unique place within the panorama of contemporary architecture, being exclusively composed of work in the public realm. Attending the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign, Carol received a Bachelor of Architecture degree in 1971. A week after graduation, Carol and her husband, Alan Barney, a botanist, embarked on their assignment with the United States Peace Corps. Working with the fledgling Costa Rican National Park Service, their mission was to assist in the protection and preservation of Costa Rica’s amazingly diverse and threatened ecology. Carol’s projects included a master plan for coral reef protection at Parque Nacional Cahuita, restoration of the historic hacienda at Parque Nacional Santa Rosa, and worker housing at Parque Nacional Volcan Poas. Following her service in the Peace Corps, Carol joined a few notable Chicago firms before venturing out on her own. Here is where Carol was able to uphold a deep commitment to the role the built environment plays in life quality.

    2008 Annual Report “ Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfi ts, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify forward: motion them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things...they push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world are the ones who do.” —Apple Co-founder Steve Jobs Contents From the President 2 From the Chair 3 Students 4 Research 16 Community 36 Campus 48 Financials 59 Board 62 From the President t Illinois Institute of Technology, we see things differently. We view technology and innovation as the tools to propel society forward. Now more than ever, worldwide demand for cleaner energy, better education for tomorrow’s leaders, and solutions to vexing medical issues place IIT in a position where the work we do can Ayield powerful results. In order to make a broad impact, we know that IIT needs to establish its place among the top universities in the country. In my inauguration as president last year, I described how IIT must capitalize on its areas of expertise if the university is to move toward higher plateaus.
