Congratulations to Ana Souza, João Xavier, Rute Ribeiro and Shelley Barradas

examples of student work

After reviewing almost 200 portfolios and watching presentations, Rusty and I finally met one-on-one with 11 students interested in the Lusìada / Auburn Exchange Program in Landscape Architecture. The students all had beautiful work, were energetic and thoughtful in their interviews. This made our job of selecting two extremely difficult, as any one of the students would make a great addition to our Master of Landscape Architecture Program. Ana Souza and João Xavier were selected to come to Auburn next year as graduate research assistants and Rute Ribeiro and Shelley Barradas were selected as alternates.

Thanks again to all the fifth year architecture students for great presentations and most importantly, for being patient with our dreadful Portuguese enunciation. Thanks also to Antonio, Alexandre, Orlando and Josè Marie, the fifth year faculty, for their hospitality and critical insight of local culture, food and design.

We’ll see you in Auburn soon!

    Although it was one of the saddest moments of my life not to have been chosen I would like to give a big cheer to my fellow colleagues and hope they will make the best of it and show how good we are at charing. David, Rusty you are A OK!

    Hi, if you’re interested I’ve converted my presentation and interview (Before Book) folios into Power Point. It should be easier to show them to your students in this format.

    Hi Nuno - it is great to hear from you so soon. David and I have only just arrived safely in the United States. I would enjoy the Power Point presentation very much - what would be the best way to get it from you? Your words of congratulations to your colleagues is much appreciated and understood, and thanks you for your consideration to both David and Myself. Good luck to you during your remaining year and afterwards as well. Please keep in touch with us; we look forward to our return.
