Abstracts for Walter Wagner Forum Due December 12
Students, educators, and practitioners are invited to submit abstracts for the Walter Wagner Forum on architecture education, which takes place at the 2009 AIA national convention in San Francisco in May. The theme for next year’s forum is “Architectural Education in a Complex World: How Diversity Is Preparing our Future Practitioners.” Abstract submissions—no longer than 500 words—are due by December 12. Accepted authors will be invited to participate in the forum and receive complimentary registration for the convention and a $500 stipend. The Walter Wagner Forum—currently sponsored by the AIA Educator/Practitioner Network, the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture, and the American Institute of Architecture Students—was created in 1986 by the AIA and Architectural Record as a tribute to the late Record Editor in Chief Walter Wagner Jr., FAIA, who was particularly committed to the education of young architects and the education of the public about architecture and architects.
