Studio Preferences
Remember to share your studio preference with me for winter quarter. Use the link at the right to complete the survey. Scholars students are given priority for this course, which is why I'm asking you to provide your preference before your registration time begins. If you don't share your preference, you'll likely still be able to register for the course on your own, but I can't guarantee that you'll be able to sign-up for your first choice time.
If you already completed the survey, then I've already added this course to your winter quarter schedule.

Scheduling Q&A
Q: Ok, so when do I need to take English 110? The curriculum sheet says winter, but I think I remember something about the Scholars taking English together in spring?
A: There will be an Architecture Scholars section of English 110 in spring quarter. If you have credit for English 110 (through AP credits or post-secondary credits), you do not need to take this course.
Q: Why aren't all the Scholars students in the same studio section?
A: Every Scholars student has different course needs in winter quarter outside of studio, so it would be impossible to mandate that everyone enroll in the same section. For instance, if you need Physics 111, you will need to take the afternoon studio due to course times. Plus, some of you are morning people and some of you are not. In this case, choice is good.
Q: How do I register for the Istanbul seminar?
A: Angi will register your for this seminar once you are accepted to the program. The course number is Arch 698.04. Remember that the seminar meets on Fridays from 9:30-11:18am so be sure not to schedule another course during that time.
Q: Realistically, how many credits should I take with studio?
A: I recommend scheduling 15-18 hours total.
Q: What if I don't have the necessary prerequistes to take a class? For instance, I really want to take Human Nutrition 210, but don't yet have credit for Biology 101.
A: In many cases, you may be able to get permission from the instructor to enroll in a class for which you do not meet the stated prerequistes. To do this, you need to obtain the instructor's signature on a Course Enrollment Permission form. Once signed, return the form to me, and I'll add the course for you. You can also use this form for permission to take a class that is full, audit a course, or for other reasons.

Studio Update
One additional section of Arch 202/Larch 151 will be available in winter quarter. The new section will be Tuesday and Thursday from 8:30am-12:18pm. This is not yet listed in the Schedule of Classes, but it will be available for you. The section days and times that I originally posted below still stand.
Once you have considered all of your options for winter quarter, please complete the WI10 Studio Preference Survey to let me know which of the three studio sections you'd prefer. This survey is also available under Important Links on the right-hand side of this page.

Arch 202/Larch 151 for Winter Quarter
What does this mean? This means that you need to carefully consider which studio days/times you would most prefer (either Monday/Wednesday morning or Tuesday/Thursday afternoons) and how those days/times will coordinate with the rest of your schedule.
For example, if you need to take Physics 111 in winter quarter, you would likely select the Tuesday/Thursday afternoon studio since all Physics 111 lectures and recitations in winter quarter are in the morning hours.
If you are planning to participate in the Istanbul program, your required seminar is Fridays 9:30-11:18am. You cannot currently view this in the Schedule of Classes, but you should leave this block of time free. This seminar course will be added to your schedule once you are officially accepted to the Istanbul program.

You should have received the following email from the Registrar within the last 24 hours. Please be sure to look over this information carefully as it pertains to your responsibilies in scheduling Winter Quarter courses.

NOTE: If you receive the message "No Valid Appointment Found" when attempting to register, this means an enrollment appointment has not been assigned to you and you must contact your college office for assistance.

Retrofitting Suburbia
June Williamson
Wednesday, October 7th
10:30-11:48am
KN 190
June Williamson will speak about her new book Retrofittng Suburbia: Urban Design Solutions for Redesigning Sububs on Wednesday, October 7th at 10:30am in Knowlton Hall. While there has been considerable attention by practitioners and academics to development in urban cores and new neighborhoods on the periphery of cities, there has been little attention to the redesign and redevelopment of existing suburbs. Willaimson will share advice for architects, planners, urban designers, and developers on how existing suburbs can be redesigned and redeveloped. Williamson will show how development in existing suburbs can absorb new growth and evolve in relation to changed demographic, technological, and economic conditions. June Williamson is an Associate Professor of Architecture at the City College of New York. She holds a Master's in Urban Planning from City College of New York, a Master's of Architecture from MIT and a Bachelor's of Architecture from Yale.
