Wed March 2, 2016, 5PM-7PM
MIT Media Lab, 6th floor, Cambridge MA
(MIT Building E14: <http://whereis.mit.edu/?go=E14>)
How do graduate planning schools work with APA and the Massachusetts
planning community to simultaneously address local issues and educate
our students? What are the benefits --- and tradeoffs --- of graduate
field projects, studios, and applied practicum classes? How are
students, alums, faculty, and APA members connecting to work together
through class activities, internships, research projects, guest
lectures, local events, and other activities --- and what
opportunities for collaboration should we be exploring in the future?

+ Mariana Arcaya, MIT, Urban Studies & Planning
+ Eran Ben-Joseph, MIT, Urban Studies & Planning
