Beatrix Farrand (1872-1959), a prominent landscape architect, provided landscape design services for the Harkness Memorial Quadrangle from 1920 to 1922 and served as Consulting Landscape Gardener to Yale University from 1923 to 1945. While widespread knowledge affirmed Farrand’s campus influence, little was known about the breadth or depth of her contributions in shaping the campus. This study identifies, documents, and assesses for integrity the landscapes to which Beatrix Farrand contributed. This research- based study sought documentation to clarify and provide details about her 25-year tenure with Yale University and to gain an understanding

  • Town, Gown, and the Great Depression: Yale and New Haven During the Construction of Yale’S Original Residential Colleges
    DAVID MCCULLOUGH TOWN, GOWN, AND THE GREAT DEPRESSION: YALE AND NEW HAVEN DURING THE CONSTRUCTION OF YALE’S ORIGINAL RESIDENTIAL COLLEGES In 1930, New Haven had nearly all the hallmarks of a city devastated by the Great De- pression: thousands of hungry young children, unemployed parents wandering the streets looking for work, businesses shuttered. Meanwhile, the slice of the city that was Yale seemed impervious to the effects of the economic crisis. Throughout the Great Depression, the University hungrily bought up land and erected massive new buildings, including the eight which would come to serve as its first residential colleges. In the fol- lowing pages, David McCullough III ’17 explores this historical juxtaposition, tracing the simmering tensions which erupted between town and gown in this fraught time. By David McCullough III, DC ’17 Edited by Eva Landsberg and Emily Yankowitz 9 TOWN, GOWN, AND THE GREAT DEPRESSION A TUESDAY IN OCTOBER October 29, 1929, New Haven: On the corner of College and Chapel Streets, the prominent Hotel Taft, with its whitewashed Gregorian columns and twelve-story red brick façade, towered over the quiet Green. Next door, a string of Ford Model As sat along the curb beneath the grandiose sign and overhang of the Schubert Theater. Behind locked doors, the theater began to bustle in preparation for the evening’s performance. The steeples of the Trinity Episcopal, Center, and United Churches poked above the tree line, three abreast along Temple Street. And throughout the bustling Green, rows of elms took on their autumnal yellows and reds. Through Church, Elm, and Chapel Streets, trolleys glided by whirring automobiles and rattling carts full of every good imaginable.

  • Yale Medical Anthropololgy-3
    MEDICAL ANTHROPOLOGY @ YALE Harkness Tower, Yale University Yale University | Department of Anthropology | 10 Sachem Street | New Haven, CT USA 06520-8277 | phone 203.432.3700 | fax 203.432.3669 | email: [email protected] | www.yale.edu/anthro | twitter Yale_Anthro 1 MEDICAL ANTHROPOLOGY AT YALE Since its inception in the late 1950s, medical anthropology has been broadly defined as the study of health, illness, and healing through time and across cultural settings. Medical anthropologists study human suffering and wellbeing, as well as the medical systems in place to impact health and healing. Around the world, medical anthropologists analyze the relations among health, illness, disability, social institutions, culture, and political-economic power, combining biomedical perspectives with those that address social and cultural problems through health advocacy and activism. Their work points to the differences in the ways bodies count: who falls ill and why; who has access to health resources; and where healing is sought. Medical anthropologists have contributed to the study of human health across the life cycle, probing issues of human reproduction and growth to disease and death. They have examined questions of stigma, marginality, and the disabled body. They have probed critical issues of biopolitics, immigration, race, citizenship, social inequality, and health disparities. They also look at the intersections of disease and environment, and the structural violence triggered by processes of globalization, neoliberalism, global capitalism, and war. In the midst of these macrostructural forces, medical anthropologists have examined the social construction of illness categories, the individual illness narratives used to articulate them, and the social and political hierarchies such categories may produce or maintain.

The 2018 winners are featured in this book and represent a range of housing types, climates, and architectural practices. As recent studies have demonstrated, the health outcomes of Americans can be better anticipated based on their zip code than their genetic code. Financial mobility, educational achievement and other quality of life indicators are also heavily predicated by the location of a person’s residence. Within this context I am particularly proud that these awards represent values that include, but are not limited to, aesthetics. In 2018, the Housing Knowledge Community is transitioning our title to be the Housing and Community Development Knowledge Community, further asserting a commitment to developing knowledge, a network, and a culture that elevates residential architecture that is responsive and relevant to all occupants, considers impacts beyond the borders of a site, and utilizes design as a tool for positive impact.
