Steedman honors
 Above, at the April 8 awards ceremony for the School of Architecture's Steedman Fellowship, are (from left) Australian architect Glen Murcutt, the Ruth and Norman Moore Visiting Professor; Bill Wischmeyer, adjunct associate professor; landscape architect Tom Oslund of Minneapolis; Finnish architect Juhani Pallasmaa, the Raymond E. Maritz Visiting Professor; and Ann Rivers Mack, project director for the Resource Center. An international jury of architects and designers awarded the 2002 Steedman Fellowship to Virginia architect Schaeffer Somers for his theoretical design of the proposed Great Rivers Resource Center, marking the confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. The biennial competition is open to young architects from
around the world and carries a first-place award of $30,000 to support study and research abroad -- the largest such prize in the United States. At above right is Somers' winning design.
