Go Gators...

except for the fact that UF has now lost three long time professors (mccleod, sanders, and now tanzer) in the space of the last month or two... this is not good for florida's program...

That's one way to look at it Phil...and of course I agree that having these 3 professors leave is a significant loss for UF, but I think that speaks to how amazing the program at the School is. The fact that a few of their talented professors are finding themselves in positions of leadership elsewhere reflects well on UF.

Also, I'm confident that even given the UF SoA's recent leadership change, the School will continue to have a stellar undergraduate program, at the very least. (some of my confidence comes from having just received the latest issue of Architrave, UF's student work publication...things are looking great, especially in the lower division studios).

UT Austin deployed(?) the Texas Rangers (including John Hejduk and Colin Rowe) a generation ago, and that had a serious impact on architectural education across the country.

just a thought.

btw, where are McCleod and Sanders going?

They are headed to the University of South Florida, where MacLeod will be the Director of the Architecture program.
