鈥淚t鈥檚 a wonderful opportunity for the students to ask all the questions they want to ask of people who sat in the same seats 10 years ago when they were students in the BLA (bachelor鈥檚 of landscape architecture) program,鈥� says Professor Will Green, the lecture series鈥� organizer since 1993.
The lecture, titled 鈥楧ivergent Paths and Common Themes,鈥� will be held at 7 p.m. Feb. 12 in Weaver Auditorium in the Coastal Institute Building on 溏心vlog免费B站鈥檚 Kingston Campus. The event is free and open to the public.
At Beta Group Inc. in Lincoln, R.I., Socha works on design projects for roads, campuses and public landscapes. At Glen Gate Company, a large design-build company in Connecticut, Russ works with in-house designers and contractors to install large-scale residential and commercial designs.
鈥淭he connection of 鈥榙ivergent paths and common themes鈥� will be reflected through our experiences post college. We both left 溏心vlog免费B站 with similar skills, but we have chosen completely different areas to continue to develop within,鈥� says Russ. Socha will illustrate this theme by discussing the differences between three major projects, as well as lessons learned in the field.
