Sam Fox School Associate Dean Peter MacKeith receives 2007-08 ACSA Creative Achievement Award
Peter MacKeith, Associate Dean of the Sam Fox School and Associate Professor of Architecture, will receive a 2008 ACSA Creative Achievement in Design Education Award at the annual ACSA National Conference this Friday in Houston, Texas. The award recognizes “LIGHTHOUSES: ADVENTURES ON THE MISSISSIPPI,” the design studio instructed by Professor MacKeith in the spring, 2007 in the College of Architecture’s senior undergraduate advanced studio sequence. Fifteen undergraduate students studied the history and culture of the Mississippi River throughout the duration of the studio, eventually proposing designs for a series of observation pavilions at the major confluences of the River.
