LAEP Speaker Series: Dan Jost
Lecture/Readings
The Tenuous Renaissance in Playscape Design In recent years, the U.S. has undergone a renaissance in playscape design. Those designing and commissioning playgrounds are increasingly moving away from static pole and platform structures that provide little play value and even less challenge. While safety is still one of the major drivers of playground design, there is an increasing understanding that not all risks can or should be limited--and some are beneficial. The adventure playground--where children build their own environments with hammers and saws--has made a bit of a comeback, and loose parts are being embraced on a wider scale. Innovative climbing features let children climb higher, farther, and in more social ways--while limiting falls from high places. And designers are increasingly bringing nature into playscapes--which has positive impacts on children's health and well-being. In this presentation, Daniel Jost will discuss the playscape renaissance taking place, some of the playscapes he documented as a writer at Landscape Architecture Magazine, and his own efforts to support thoughtful playscapes and outdoor learning environments.

LAEP Speaker Series: Sean Burkholder
Lecture/Readings
Managing Muddy Methods As climate-induced shifts make our coastal environments increasingly volatile and unpredictable, establishing new ways of working that move beyond the tried-and-true assumptions that past observations provide accurate examples for future conditions has become necessary. This becomes even more prescient when considering the objectives of designing or engineering with nature as opposed to simply protecting ourselves against it. Experimentation and contextual knowledge are finding new applications where once we relied on established and universal standards of best practice. With a focus on liminal coastal environments of both fresh and salt water, this talk will span a range of recent design work, organized around the subject of landscape research methods and this role of experimentation.
"How the Great War Ended: Making Peace on the Middle Eastern Front" with Michelle Tusan
Lecture/Readings | Inclusive Excellence
This talk will explore the peace process between the Allies and the Ottoman Empire at the end of the First World War. It reveals the human cost of nearly 10 years of uninterrupted war when peace finally came in 1923.
Make do and Mend: The Impact of the Second World War on the Style and Acquisition of Clothing
Lecture/Readings
Join us for the Friends of the Merrill-Cazier Library Spring Lecture! Nancy Hills, Head of USU's Theatre Costume Design Program, will deliver Make do and Mend: The Impact of the Second World War on the Style and Acquisition of Clothing on March 29th at 7:00 p.m. Immediate, basic human needs include food, clothing, and shelter. When societies engage in war these necessities are compromised. It might seem irreverent to consider fashion in the context of conflict, but the experience of war and the upheaval it foists on society is always reflected in the way society attires itself.

Leading with Landscape
Anna Cawrse and Josh Brooks will explore how leading with landscape lets Sasaki tackle some of the most complex and challenging urban design and landscape architecture projects across the world. By starting with environmental systems as the driving framework, they will explore the urban constraints at Denargo Market in Denver, CO; how to create a more ecologically resilient future for University Lakes in Baton Rouge, LA; how to transform abandoned infrastructure in Athens, Greece into Europe's largest urban waterfront park; and how research can help cities and parks tackle climate change.
