Professor Timothy Hilton is presently navigating remote Studio instruction due to the present emergency situation. He intends that the studio experience will not suffer unescessarily because the current situation forces us to remain apart and remote. Adaptability, Thinking on ones feet, and Imaginative Response are all useful talents for our profession, the students get to see these skills demonstrated in action by their Instructors every day as they respond to the realities of the crisis. The studio experience is an essential part of the education of an Architect. The Pride of Work each student carries up the education ladder is the strongest attribute a young graduate can have when it's time for them to enter the profession.
