Alumni Spotlight

When I visited the school, I was hooked when I saw the studios filled with students making architectural models! Hands down the faculty are the best. George Welch and the rest of the faculty are amazing.

I enjoyed the smaller classrooms and the relationships we could build with the instructors. It made the learning process better and more personal. My fondest memories were when the construction management students would work on their homework and projects together up in the construction management loft.

NewSchool is a community that is very project-based with focus on real-life projects and global issues and for those who learn best by doing and observing. I would say this is the school to be at.

What I liked the most about NewSchool was the library. There are so many great resources for students. My favorite memories while attending were the people, the projects, and presenting my final project.

It is still early in my career, but I was placed in charge of handling the logistics for a 100 Meg. solar farm due to my drive and attention to detail. With 100s of thousands of pieces of material arriving on the site within 6 months, it is part of my job to ensure all the material is here on site when it is supposed to be.
