Roadtrip (17!) - Daniels University of Toronto 2010 Fall Lecture Series

Further cementing its place in my heart Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape and Design has posted their 2010 Fall Lecture Series in a fantastically easy to view and find stuff weblist. I am currently attempting to figure out how to have my studio class self teach/police for a day so I can see Jan Gehl in October. Unless I make the students go as well...
