To the ISoA Academic Community:
It is a distinct honor to announce that the Executive Committee voted unanimously to support Prof. Emeritus Jeff Poss’ nomination to bestow upon Art Kaha the Illinois Medal of Architecture. This prestigious accolade has been awarded since 1981 to distinguished alumni of the Illinois School of Architecture, and it recognizes a lifetime of dedication and excellence. Past recipients include Jeanne Gang (2024), Ralph Johnson (2022), Dina Griffin (2021), Carol Ross-Barney (2019), Cesar Pelli (2008), Jack Baker and Dick Williams (2007), Temple Hoyne Buell (2007) and Max Abramovitz (1987).
The ceremony will take place on Plym Auditorium on Monday, February 24 at 6pm, followed by a reception in the Atrium.
I look forward to seeing you at the event to recognize our distinguished colleague.
Sincerely,
Director Francisco Rodriguez-Suarez
