About the Book
What was it like being an architecture student at the University of Maryland in the late 70's? This fast-paced, firsthand account of an architecture graduate's experiences is written in short, illustrated chapters covering dining halls and Beaux Art Balls, registration days and studio nights, dorm forays and jury stories, plus some wild adventures with friends. A truly multifaceted ode to the college years, and one that captures not only the details but the spirit of life at that time, both on and off campus.
