Community Committment - Tuesday
Meet me outside the main entrance to Baker West at 7:30am on Tuesday morning. We'll walk over to the Ohio Union together to be assigned a volunteer location.
And don't forget that later on Tuesday, we'll be meeting up for our kick-off in the Baker West performance space at 3:30pm.
Arch/Larch 200 Books Announced
You'll need two books for Arch/Larch 200.
Ideas of Order by Jacqueline Gargus
Landscape Design by Elizabeth Barlow Rogers
I've noticed that the Landscape Design book is available (new) on Amazon for $47.25. Of course, you may need to wait for shipping, but this is likely to be less than the new cost straight off a bookshelf.
These books have been ordered through SBX, but you might find them other places as well. If you're local, you might also look at Half Price Books.

Study Abroad: Spring Break 2011
A mystery no more: The 2011 Study Abroad will be focused in The Netherlands, with travel to Amsterdam and Rotterdam.
Firs-year students: Expect a phone call from Arch/Larch 200 Instructor Aimee Moore. In addition to teaching Arch/Larch 200 this fall, Aimee will be co-leading the 2011 study abroad program and its seminar course. She'll be in touch with you soon to share details and answer questions.
More details will also be posted here as soon as they are available.
What do you think about this destination? Has anyone traveled there previously? Are there any particular buildings, landscapes or developments that you hope to see and study?
Books!
Which books do I need? Where do I buy them? Do I need books for the first day of class? Should I buy new or used?
These are common questions! If you'd like you can look up and reserve (or rent or buy) your books in advance. Several campus area bookstore offer these services.
Barnes & Noble
Buckeye Books
College Town
SBX
You will not have a book for Arch/Larch/CRP 100 or Larch 693.
You don't have to reserve your books in advance, though it may be convenient to do this your first time around. If you don't reserve books, just take a copy of your schedule with you to any bookstore to find what you need.
