      <title>UVa Students Collaborate to Help Fund and Design New Schools in Uganda</title>

      <description><![CDATA[ [from UVa News Services, by Jeffrey Hanna]&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;&quot;Contagious&quot; is perhaps the best word to describe the excitement surrounding a project to build schools for impoverished rural communities in Uganda through a partnership between the University of Virginia's School of Engineering and Applied Science and its School of Architecture.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;That excitement would certainly go a long way to explain why more than 700 students took turns riding stationary bikes in the pouring rain at a project fundraiser, held March 31 through April 4 on the Lawn, as muddied Irish step dancers, a cappella groups and belly dancers cheered them on.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;The energy driving it all was perhaps nowhere more evident than in the voice of second-year student Meredyth Gilmore, president of the U.Va. chapter of Building Tomorrow. She proudly explained that, with the $17,610 generated by the bikers added to funds raised through a similar event last year, the organization now has more than enough to build a school in Uganda.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;&quot;Everybody's giving their time, their money, their innovation &#151; whatever they can to help out this one community that's halfway around the world whose needs are so great,&quot; she said, crediting the support that spread like wildfire among the student body, the faculty and the local community.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Near the top of that list of supporters are the fourth-year Engineering in Context students working with Dana Elzey, associate professor of materials science and director of the Engineering School's international programs, and the architecture students working with assistant professor Anselmo Canfora in his &quot;Studio reCOVER.&quot;&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;They've worked together since last year to design the school's physical structure and its water collection, filtration, sanitation and solar lighting systems, and they are tremendously excited by Building Tomorrow's effective and high-impact approach that pushes every dollar to its maximum use.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;By partnering with the Ugandan Ministry of Education, which pays for the teachers, and working closely with the community leaders to ensure local investment in the form of donated labor, the organization builds strong consensus. That's crucial when you consider that in the Wakiso district of Uganda, where the school will go, approximately 330,000 children have no access to education.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;The students are excited by the prospect of seeing their design implemented and used. Bridging the gap between academia and practice is what Studio reCOVER and Engineering in Context are all about.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;[for complete article, follow link in headline]<br>&#10;<a href="http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=5148">Additional Info</a><br>&#10;<a href="http://www.studiorecover.virginia.edu/recover.html">Initiative reCOVER</a><br>&#10; ]]></description>

      <title>Prof. W.G. Clark's House Included in Oxford American Magazine</title>
      <link>http://www.arch.virginia.edu/news/305</link>
      <pubDate>Thu, 8 May 2008 14:00:42 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[ Professor of Architecture Edward Ford has authored an article in the Oxford American Magazine featuring Professor W.G. Clark's house, of his own design,  as one of the &quot;Best Modern Homes of the New South.&quot; Prof Ford writes, &quot;W.G. Clark was born in Virginia, educated at Jefferson's University of Virginia, where he now teaches, and lives within a mile of Monticello. But the small house he built for himself is not about Virginia architecture as a Romantic ideal. Rather, it's a response to the reality of a place. It's not about being in Virginia: it's about being in this particular, all too typical location in Virginia. ... as Clark once wrote, 'There is a difference between buildings that merely look Jeffersonian as opposed to the infinitely more difficult task of being Jeffersonian.' Clark's house, imbued with Jeffersonian spirit, does just that: It looks beyond Virginia while responding to what is actually there, quietly defying the architecture of the familiar, of the nostalgic.&quot; For the complete article, see the Oxford American Magazine (not available online in full).<br>&#10;<a href="http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=1991704080566501&amp;act=post&amp;pid=12030705080755074">Additional Info</a><br>&#10;<a href="http://www.oxfordamericanmag.com/">Oxford American Magazine</a><br>&#10; ]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[ [From UVa News Services, by Rebecca Arrington]&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;The University of Virginia will participate in the 75th Historic Garden Week in Virginia April 22. Events include a lecture by Will Rieley, U.Va. School of Architecture alumnus and former faculty member, and a student-designed exhibit on the architectural history of the U.Va. gardens. As always, the University's pavilion gardens and selected homes will be open to the public for the event.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Rieley, who serves as consulting landscape architect to the Garden Club of Virginia, which sponsors historic garden week, will give a public talk titled &quot;The Garden Club of Virginia and the U.Va. Gardens&quot; at 2 p.m. in the auditorium of the Harrison Institute/Small Special Collections Library.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Special Collections will also house a student-curated exhibit, &quot;Designing History, Curating Nature: The Gardens Within the Academical Village&quot; on April 21 and 22. The exhibit outlines the architectural history of the gardens and their relationship to the wider University community.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Landscape architecture students Jessica Calder, Melissa Celii, Taylor Cooper, Paul De, Kurt Fulmer, Dhara Goradia, Lauren Hackney, Christa Kolb, Elise Mazareas and Chihiro Shinohara, as well as College of Arts &amp; Sciences student Mary Brandon Ingram, created the exhibit as independent study projects over the course of the year. They explored themes such as how the gardens have changed over time, their use as social spaces and the patronage of the Garden Club, which restored the gardens in the second half of the 20th century.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Landscape architecture professor Beth Meyer, who guided the students in developing the exhibit, said that the project was a chance for the whole University community to learn more about the unique spaces.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;&quot;There are a lot of myths about those gardens,&quot; Meyer said. She also pointed out that while Jefferson laid out the serpentine walls, &quot;He didn't design the gardens. He let the faculty develop them the way anybody who moved into a house would. They had to grow their own food....&quot; [for complete article, follow link to UVa News online]&#13;&#10;<br>&#10;<a href="http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=4923">Additional Info</a><br>&#10;<a href="http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=4923">UVa News article</a><br>&#10; ]]></description>

Some of it's from thousands of miles away. Other items may only be from a few miles down the road.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;&quot;University of Virginia students have been working to figure out where our area's food system stands. Tuesday, they're revealing their results and want to hear from you. The students have been studying Charlottesville's 'glocal' food system. That's a combination of global and local. Their goal was to assess different situations and find out how we can work to create a better balance between the two areas depending on what people need.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;&quot;Tim Beatley is a professor of Sustainable Communities at the University of Virginia. His class is studying Charlottesville's food system. Each student is focusing on a different aspect of 'glocal' foods or combining global and local supplies. Families in affordable housing, restaurants, and community services are all topics. Each has its own story....&quot; &#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;[for complete article, follow link to WVIR-TV's website]<br>&#10;<a href="http://www.nbc29.com/Global/story.asp?S=8205699&amp;nav=menu496_2_5">Additional Info</a><br>&#10;<a href="http://www.nbc29.com/Global/story.asp?S=8205699&amp;nav=menu496_2_5">WVIR-TV</a><br>&#10; ]]></description>

Look!' exclaimed Collins, a UVa professor of urban and environmental planning. 'There&#146;s a pair of nesting geese.'&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;A few moments later, UVa history professor Stephen Levine strolled up, leading his nervous donkey Neftu.'She&#146;s taking her time,' said Levine, the property&#146;s owner. 'This is all new for her.'&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;The grad students are part of Collins&#146; class on the legal aspects of planning. They spent Monday morning in Levine&#146;s field &#151; located at a convergence of the north and south forks of the Rivanna River &#151; to learn about how conservation easements are protecting hundreds of thousands of acres of rural countryside across Virginia.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;'It&#146;s not just rural protection we&#146;re after,' said Collins, an outspoken critic of runaway development.

      <title>Dr. Gro Harlem Brundtland To Give 2008 Thomas Jefferson Foundation Medalist in Architecture Lecture</title>

      <pubDate>Thu, 10 Apr 2008 15:09:42 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[ [by Jane Ford, UVa News Services]&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;  Gro Harlem Brundtland, special envoy on climate change at the United Nations, former prime minister of Norway and a former director-general of the World Health Organization, will be awarded the 2008 Thomas Jefferson Foundation Medal in Architecture at the University of Virginia Founder&#146;s Day festivities in April.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;    Brundtland will give a public talk on Friday, April 11, at 3 p.m., in Old Cabell Hall Auditorium.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;    &#147;In honoring Dr. Brundtland we celebrate her legendary leadership in global sustainability and the stewardship of our environment, values that we have championed and developed in our work at the School of Architecture. We are so pleased to share our school&#146;s accomplishments with such a distinguished figure and we all look forward to her University address on April 11th,&#148; said Architecture School Dean Karen Van Lengen.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;    A politician, physician, diplomat and activist, Brundtland gained international recognition in the 1980s for supporting and promoting sustainable development as chair of the United Nations' World Commission of Environment and Development, known as the Brundtland Commission. The commission's report, &quot;Our Common Future,&quot; outlined the broad political concept of sustainable development that takes into embraces multi-disciplinary considerations, including energy, industry, population and human resources, food security, species and ecosystems, international cooperation, decision-making systems and international economic relations.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;    The commission's recommendations led to the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, at which representatives of 172 governments and 2,400 representatives of nongovernmental organizations concerned about the environment agreed on a Climate Change Convention that developed into the Kyoto Protocol.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;    Brundtland spent the first 10 years of her professional career as a physician and scientist in the Norwegian public health system, where she championed children's health issues and became increasingly aware that many of those health concerns are related to environmental issues. Her work in this area led to her appointment as Norway's Minister of the Environment in 1971. In 1981, at age 41, she was appointed prime minister, the youngest person and first woman to hold that post.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;    It was during her 10 years as prime minister that she developed a growing concern for environmental issues of global significance and chaired the U.N.'s World Commission on Environment and Development. In 1998, after stepping down as prime minister, Brundtland became director-general of the World Health Organization, where she combined her skills as doctor, politician and activist to advocate and work for equitable and sustainable health systems in all countries.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;    Since 2007 Brundtland has served as a U.N. Special Envoy for Climate Change.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;    Former recipients of the Thomas Jefferson Foundation Medal in Architecture, which was created in 1966 to recognize outstanding achievement in design or distinguished contributions in the field of architecture, include; Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (the first recipient), Alvar Aalto, Marcel Breuer, Lewis Mumford, Vincent Scully, Dan Kiley, Jane Jacobs, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Glenn Murcutt, James Turrell, Peter Zumthor and Zaha Hadid. &#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;    The Thomas Jefferson Medal in Architecture and its counterparts in law and civic leadership are the highest external honors bestowed by the University, which grants no honorary degrees. The awards recognize achievements of those who embrace endeavors that the author of the Declaration of Independence, third U.S. president and founder of the University of Virginia, himself, excelled in and held in high regard.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;    Sponsored jointly by the University and the Thomas Jefferson Foundation, the nonprofit organization that owns and operates Monticello, the annual awards are conferred during the Founder's Day celebrations surrounding Jefferson's birthday, April 13. Awardees each deliver a public lecture at the University and engage in dialogue with students and faculty members. In addition to receiving a medal struck for the occasion, they will attend ceremonies in the Rotunda and a dinner at Monticello.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;&#9;&#13;&#10;&#9;&#9;<br>&#10;<a href="http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=4182">Additional Info</a><br>&#10;<a href="http://www.virginia.edu/uvatoday/newsRelease.php?id=4182">UVa News article</a><br>&#10; ]]></description>
